Melbourne prepares to do the Time Warp again!

RHS_melb_edIn just under two weeks, Melbourne is set to do the Time Warp again, as The Rocky Horror Show kicks off its season at the Comedy Theatre.

Since its first appearance at the Royal Court Theatre in June 1973, The Rocky Horror Show has become the world’s favourite Rock N’ Roll musical. It has been performed worldwide in over 30 countries in every continent and has been translated into more than 20 languages. To celebrate the 40th anniversary, Christopher Luscombe has created a brand new production for its Australian tour, which has wowed them already in Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide.

Follow squeaky-clean sweethearts Brad and Janet on an adventure they’ll never forget, with the scandalous Frank’n’Furter, rippling Rocky and vivacious Magenta. Get ready for a night of fun, frolics and frivolity in this thrilling production of Richard O’Brien’s classic original script! Bursting at the seams with timeless classics, including Sweet Transvestite, Damn it Janet, and of course, the pelvic-thrusting Time Warp – The Rocky Horror Show is a non-stop party!

The 40th Anniversary Australian production stars Craig McLachlan in the lead role of Frank N Furter, together with Christie Whelan Browne and Tim Maddren as the hapless young innocents Janet and Brad.  Also appearing are Kristian Lavercombe as Franks’ loyal henchman, Riff Raff, Erika Heynatz as Magenta, Ashlea Pyke as Columbia, Nicholas Christo as Eddie / Dr. Scott and Tony Farrell as the Narrator.

Get ready to be thrilled with its frothy, fun, and naughty moments, this is the boldest bash of them all – so sharpen those stilettos for the rockiest ride of your life!
