The Rocky Horror Show

Richard O'Brien's delirious and oddly touch-a-touch-a-touch-a-touching spoof of science-fiction and horror B flicks—a mix of satire, rock & roll and anything-goes queer sensibility— didn't last long in its 1975 Broadway debut, but it spawned a film that became the fairy godmother of all midnight movies and attracted a rabid cult following that continues to this day. Sam Pinkleton (Oh, Mary!) directs the musical's second Broadway revival for Roundabout Theatre Company; British heartthrob Luke Evans (Beauty and the Beast) stars as the show's strutting, lingerie-clad "sweet transvestite" antihero: the alien mad scientist Dr. Frank-N-Furter, whose version of Frankenstein's monster is a blond muscle boy. Supporting casting has not yet been revealed.
