STILL the world’s favourite rock ‘n’ roll musical, The Rocky Horror Show Live, will be broadcast live to The Bacon Theatre, Cheltenham, on Thursday, September 17.

The show which is hailed by critics and adored by fans around the world will welcome back its creator Richard O’Brien who stars as the narrator, rejoining the cast for the first time in more than 2-years.

It’s coming from the Frankenstein place, where Dr Frank. N. Furter is in the midst of one of his maniacal experiments.
