The 1975 film THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW, which today has a worldwide cult following, is based on the award-winning musical (THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW), a humorous tribute to the science fiction and horror 'B movies' of the 1950s and 60s. The musical tells the story of a newly engaged couple getting caught in a storm and finding themselves seeking help at the home of a mad transvestite scientist unveiling his new creation, a muscle man named Rocky Horror. Countless international productions have since spanned across 6 of the world's continents and the film holds the distinction of being the longest-running release in history.

Audience participation at THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW FLOOR SHOW is encouraged, and dry props will be available for sale for $5 (no wet props allowed in the venue, please!). This fully costumed and staged floor show will be an evening of audience participation and partying in true ROCKY HORROR fashion.
