Entr'Acte Theatrix Presents Richard O'Brien's THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW

Halloween is just around the corner, and who better to celebrate with than the denizens of Dr. Frank N. Furter's home-sweet-castle in Richard O'Brien's beloved cult classic, The Rocky Horror Show. And Entr'Acte Theatrix is inviting audiences to come do the Time Warp again... when they present 'Rocky' at The PGA Arts Center October 19th through October 31st.

The Rocky Horror Show is an outrageous assemblage of - and humorous tribute to - the most stereotypical science fiction and horror movies, Marvel comics, Frankie Avalon/Annette Funicello outings and rock 'n' roll of every vintage. The play (upon which the classic film The Rocky Horror Picture Show is based) has grown from an experimental production originally produced in a small London theatre in June 1973, to a cult phenomenon with fans world-wide. The musical tells the story of a newly engaged couple who, when caught in a storm, find refuge in the home of a decidedly unusual scientist who is madly working towards unveiling his latest and greatest creation.

Rocky is also the quintessential audience participation show, and Entr'Acte will have what have come to be known as 'survival kits' available for purchase for those who want them.

This is the third time Entr'Acte Theatrix will present The Rocky Horror Show. Their 2012 and 2014 productions were so successful that when an encore presentation was suggested, it was, as Entr'Acte's founder and producer Vicki Halmos says, "A 'no brainer'! Our audiences love the show," she continues, "and so does our cast. You can see it during rehearsals. Their enthusiasm is boundless, and they are so excited to be able to bring all these characters to life - figuratively and literally!" she says with a smile.

"The Rocky Horror Show is just as relevant today as it was 44 years ago when it premiered," says the production's director, Jeremy Quinn. "With the resurgence of hate, bigotry and violence for those who are 'different', it's not only an appropriate time and place to produce the show, it's a responsibility. RHS allows us the opportunity to give the 'others' a voice and platform to be seen, heard, embraced and accepted...while having A REALLY GREAT TIME AND LOADS OF SALACIOUS FUN!!!!!!!"

Cast in Entr'Acte's Rocky are Bruno Faria as Brad Majors, Mary Grace Tesoriero as Janet Weiss, Rosseroni Parris as Frank N. Furter, Ashley Alexander as Magenta, Jamie Lynn Cleary as Columbia, Greg Halmos as Riff Raff, Tyler Palmer as Rocky, Darian Cisneros as Eddie, David W. Lamphier as The Criminologist, and Carlo-Rufino Sabusap as Dr. Scott. Also in the cast are Taryn Bagdasarian, Sarah E. Kenny, Sergio Cannata, Annaya Osborne, Cristian Howard, Lara Williams, and Jason Pierre.

Along with director Quinn, the show's production crew includes co-Producer Greg Halmos, Musical Director Roger Blankenship, Choreographer Danny Durr, Stage Manager Nicole Stav, and Company Manager Carlo-Rufino Sabusap.

Entr'acte Theatrix, as the name suggests, was started to provide the next step - from classroom to career - and provide young actors a semi-professional showcase for their talents, and an all-important opportunity to build their resumes.

The theatre is located at 4076 PGA Boulevard, in Palm Beach Gardens (33410) Tickets are on sale now, and are available on line at www.entractetheatrix.org.
