Rocky Horror Show Media Launch

On the way to visit an old college professor, two clean cut kids, Brad Majors and his fiancée Janet Weiss, run into tyre trouble and seek help at the site of a light down the road. It’s coming from the Frankenstein place, where Dr Frank’n'furter is in the midst of one of his maniacal experiments…
Does this sound a little familiar to you?? Well don't I have a treat for you!!! 


Since its first appearance at the Royal Court Theatre in June 1973, Richard O’Brien’s The Rocky Horror Show has become the world’s favourite Rock N’ Roll musical. It has been performed worldwide in over 30 countries in every continent and has been translated into more than 20 languages. To celebrate the 40th anniversary, Christopher Luscombe has creating a brand new production for a year-long UK National Tour.
Follow squeaky-clean sweethearts Brad and Janet on an adventure they’ll never forget, with the scandalous Frank’n'Furter, rippling Rocky and vivacious Magenta. Get ready for a night of fun, frolics and frivolity in this thrilling production of Richard O’Brien’s classic original script! Bursting at the seams with timeless classics, including Sweet Transvestite, Damn it Janet, and of course, the pelvic-thrusting Time Warp, Richard O’Brien’s Rocky Horror show is a non-stop party!
Ready to thrill you with its frothy, fun, and naughty moments, this is the boldest bash of them all, so sharpen those stilettos for the rockiest ride of your life!
Last night I was in the honours of hearing about and seeing the casting of the Rocky Horror Musical that will hit the shows in performance theatres again for there not 40 years old but 40 years young anniversary hosted by John Frost & Craig McLachlan.



I was feeling a little awkward sitting with the elders in the stalls at this media launch having pelvic thrusts thrown out and sexual talk being mentioned but I need to remember Rocky Horror has been around for so long and that the elders now would have been sitting in or around my age and this would be totally normal to hear and see haha! 
Rocky Horror Show really holds a special place in people's hearts which we saw last night and what Craig also experienced when he was recently on a radio station where they opened up the lines for callers to have a chat about The Rocky Horror Show with the phones lighting up like a christmas tree.

Craig McLachlan is a man who is just a true comedian on the stage and had us all in hysterics with his singing, dancing and memories. 

The casting which I am delighted to play my beloved Rocky Horror characters are:
I am very majorly excited to see Erika Heynatz in this musical as I will get my lesbi-honest on and admit she is my girl crush! Erika is a stunning woman who I have watched on several tv shows and can't get enough off! I'm very eager to see how Erika gets into character for Magenta.

And as of last night I have my eye on Brendon Irving who will be playing Rocky... now we were advised last night and I must pass this onto you as we got a sneak peak off the goods but when Frank reveals his creation, have your appropriate medication for when Rocky comes out! 
YIKKKKESSSS.... It truly is a jaw dropping sighing moment that gets the ladies going!!
