Vancouver, BC – Josh Epstein, director of Studio 58’s smash-hit 2019 production of Cabaret is back with another fresh take on a musical favourite, The Rocky Horror Show.
It’s the fun and freaky escape we’ve all been craving! A flat tire in the middle of a thunderstorm forces squeaky-clean sweethearts Brad and Janet to seek shelter at the castle of the scandalous Dr. Frank ’N’ Furter. There they find themselves swept up in the mad scientist’s latest experiment and questioning everything they know about love, lust, and sexuality. Jam-packed with irresistible hits like Touch-A Touch-A Touch Me, Damn it Janet, and the pelvic-thrusting Time Warp this cult classic is a non-stop celebration!
“The Rocky Horror Show is an audience favourite. With nods to RuPaul’s Drag Race, our sexually raucous, free-wheeling, and all-embracing production is the refuge we all need right now,” says Epstein. “It’s a chance to fly your freak flag and embrace the camp…Don’t Dream It, Be It!”
This production will be presented in accordance with the latest guidelines from the Provincial Health Office. Vaccine passports and masks are mandatory to attend.
