Alton Little Theater is supercharged with excitement to offer its first-time-ever production of ROCKY HORROR – The Musical, for seven performances from October 25 through November 3 WITH a Midnight (11:59 pm) performance on Halloween, October 31! Fun bags of “props” will be for sale and the audience is encouraged to dress up, let go, and have a blast with this cult-favorite celebrating 25 years of pure enjoyment!
You may think you’ve seen the show before (as many theaters do annual renditions), but ALT will put its special spin on the favorite WOW numbers! Yes, The Naughty Sex will be there! The Science Fiction will be there! The Horror will be there! But with terrific, enhanced choreography and staging at the Showplace!
The author, Richard O’ Brian wrote the show with some great jokes and even though ROCKY HORROR encompassed his love for B-Science-Fiction-movies and frivolous entertainment, he also found himself unwittingly compelled to write his unique take on the “fall of man”, with lead roles Brad and Janet being the depiction of Adam and Eve and the snake’s temptation being Frank-N-Furter!
The stage version features all of your favorite characters and songs including “Time Warp” and “Science Fiction” for performances on October 25, 26, 27, November 1, November 2 at 7:30 pm; MIDNIGHT SHOW on HALLOWEEN and a single matinee on November 3 at 2 pm!
