The Rocky Horror Show is a high-energy, rock ‘n’ roll tribute to sci-fi and B-horror movies, packed with outrageous characters, catchy songs, and electrifying moments. The story follows Brad and Janet, a newly engaged couple whose car breaks down on a dark and stormy night. Seeking help, they stumble upon the eerie mansion of Dr. Frank-N-Furter, a charismatic and eccentric scientist hosting a mysterious gathering.

As Brad and Janet are drawn into Frank-N-Furter’s world, they encounter his creation, the muscular and naive Rocky, along with a host of bizarre and unforgettable characters. Through a series of wild and risqué encounters, the couple’s conventional beliefs are challenged, leading to an unforgettable night of self-discovery, seduction, and rock ‘n’ roll.

Filled with cult-classic songs like “Time Warp”, “Sweet Transvestite”, and “Touch-A, Touch-A, Touch Me”, The Rocky Horror Show is an interactive, boundary-pushing celebration of individuality, freedom, and unapologetic fun.

The original London production of The Rocky Horror Show, directed by Jim Sharman, premiered at the Royal Court Theatre on June 19, 1973 and won the 1973 Evening Standard Theatre Award for Best Musical. Later transferring to several other locations in London, the show ran for a total of 2,960 performances. On March 10, 1975, The Rocky Horror Show opened on Broadway at the Belasco Theatre, starring Tim Curry and featuring Meatloaf and “Ritz” O’Brien. In 2001, the show returned to Broadway at Circle in the Square Theatre, starring Raúl Esparza, Tom Hewitt, Alice Ripley and Jarrod Emick. Directed by Christopher Ashley, the revival ran for 437 performances.

At the height of the Great Depression, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow went from two small-town nobodies in West Texas to America’s most renowned folk heroes and Texas law enforcement’s worst nightmares. Fearless, shameless and alluring, the Tony-nominated Bonnie & Clyde, from the legendary Frank Wildhorn (Jekyll & Hyde, Civil War, Dracula) is the electrifying story of love, adventure and crime that captured the attention of an entire country.

When Bonnie and Clyde meet, their mutual cravings for excitement and fame immediately set them on a mission to chase their dreams. Their bold and reckless behavior turns the young lovers’ thrilling adventure into a downward spiral, putting themselves and their loved ones in trouble with the law. Forced to stay on the run, the lovers resort to robbery and murder to survive. As the infamous duo’s fame grows bigger, their inevitable end draws nearer.
