The Rocky Horror Picture Show

It's just a jump to the left, and a step to the right. You know how this goes.

Overview

There’s something sickly special about The Rocky Horror Picture Show. It may stem from that year nine dance when we were thrusting, jumping teens and the Time Warp was first sewn in our genes, or maybe it’s the fact adult musicals are becoming more and more popular (see Avenue Q, American Psycho the Musical). Or maybe, just maybe, it’s the deep-rooted feeling we all have towards a bit of leather and lace between the buns. Either way, Rocky Horror has always been a staple of the stage and screen world, and now Brisbane get’s its turn with this wild fusion of B-Grade horror, science fiction, and of course, bondage.

The name Rocky Horror stands on enough stead by itself, but a re-imagining of this classic on stage presents a whole new layer of nightmare infused delight. Veteran stage menace Craig McLachlan is taking on the infamous role of Frank N. Furter, and guaranteed to be complimented by and equally talented and experienced ensemble. Combine this with the excellent production we’ve come to expect from QPAC productions, and you can expect nothing less than a very naughty night.

It’s been scandously long since a mega-mainstream production has graced a Brisbane stage, but from the 8th of January all you Brads and Janets of Brisbane will have reason to do the pelvic thrust again.

Have a sneek peak here.
