In this cult classic, sweethearts Brad and Janet, stuck with a flat tire during a storm, discover the eerie mansion of Dr. Frank-N-Furter. The show is a humorous tribute to the science fiction B movies of the 1930s-1960s. It is also said to have been an influence on countercultural and sexual liberation movements. It was one of the first popular musicals to depict fluid sexuality during a time of division between generations and a lack of sexual difference acceptance. Due to explicitly adult themes and suggestive content, the show is recommended for audiences 14 years and older.
The cast includes Joshua Ludens (Sheboygan) as Frank-n-Furter; Joe Gallo (West Bend) at Brad; Livi Lange (Fond du Lac) as Janet; Rose Guelig (Fond du Lac) as Magenta; Matt Schmalfeldt (Fond du Lac) as Riff Raff; Ian Hawkins (Fond du Lac) as Dr. Scott; Jacob Fredrick (Oshkosh) as Eddie; Jaclyn Patterson (Sheboygan) as Columbia; Gaven Williams (Fond du Lac) as Narrator; Matt Gibbons (Fond du Lac) as Rocky; Emily Jackson (Fond du Lac) as Usherette plus Sarah Ely (Fond du Lac), Leah Kubasta (Butte des Morts), Molly Rautmann (Appleton) and JoAnn Wondra (Fond du Lac) as the ensemble.
