THE

SHOW

Rocky Horror

You have to experience the legendary musical extravaganza that is Richard O’Brien’s Rocky Horror Show!

The Rocky Horror Show tells the story of Brad and his fiancée Janet, two squeaky clean college kids, who meet Dr Frank’n Furter by chance when their car breaks

down outside his house whilst on their way to visit their favourite college professor. It’s an adventure they’ll never forget, with fun, frolics, frocks and

frivolity, bursting with timeless songs and outrageous outfits. The Rocky Horror Show is a guaranteed party, which famously combines science-

fiction, horror, comedy and music while encouraging audience participation meaning, of course, getting dressed in the most outrageous fancy dress.

This critically-acclaimed, stunning new production, features all of the famous musical numbers that have made The Rocky Horror Show such a huge hit for over four decades. These include Sweet Transvestite, Science Fiction/Double

Feature, Dammit Janet and the timeless floor-filler, The Time-Warp.

On Christmas Eve, the elderly and unpleasant man Ebenezer Scrooge, is paid a visit by the ghost of his dead business partner Joseph Marley, who tells him that three Spirits will call on Scrooge: The Spirit of Christmas Past, The Spirit of Christmas Present and The Spirit of Christmas Future.

La bohème Impoverished but inspired, Puccini’s young Bohemians make art, quarrel, make up, break up, and make-believe that there will always be another tomorrow – never imagining that their frail friend, Mimi, will not live to see the � nal days of summer. La bohème is told as � ashbacks of the elderly painter, Marcello. The production movingly contrasts the impetuousness of youth with the regrets of old age.
