AussieTheatre has two double passes to giveaway to The Rocky Horror Show at the Comedy Theatre, Melbourne on Tuesday 16 June.
The Rocky Horror Show is a true classic and one of theatre’s most endearing and outrageously fun shows. It opened at London’s Royal Court Theatre on June 19, 1973, quickly developing a cult following, and was adapted into the 1975 film The Rocky Horror Picture Show, which has the longest-running release in film history. This iconic brand holds a unique place in theatre history, a show which has defied the decades and continued to grow in popularity. In 2010 the music of Rocky Horror was showcased in the smash hit TV show Glee, seen by over 20 million people world wide. Rocky Horror even has its own postage stamp.
The coveted role of Frank N Furter will again be played by television and theatre star Craig McLachlan, fresh from shooting the title role in the third series of ABC TV’s top rating drama series The Doctor Blake Mysteries. McLachlan was awarded Best Male Actor in a Musical at the 2014 Helpmann Awards for his role as Frank. Playing the roles of Janet and Brad, the naïve young couple caught up in a situation they don’t understand, will be musical theatre favourites Amy Lehpamer (Once, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels) and Stephen Mahy (Grease, Jersey Boys). Reprising his role as Riff Raff, Frank’s loyal handyman, which he played across the world will be Kristian Lavercombe, while his sister Magenta will be played by Jayde Westaby, who has been working extensively in the UK (Chicago, The Rocky Horror Show UK tour).
Competition closes 8 June, 2015 at 6pm AEST. Winners will be contacted via email/phone.
