ARTISTIC DIRECTOR
I
’m so excited to welcome you to the Grand Theatre’s production of The Rocky Horror Show! This cult classic is a favorite for so many of our patrons. When a newly engaged couple innocently end up at the castle of the alien transvestite, Dr. Frank ‘N’ Furter, their night takes an unexpected turn that they’ll never forget. Between outlandish plot twists and a catchy rock’n’roll score, you’ll find heart and an uplifting message about following your true self. Filled with songs, characters, and jokes that you’ll love, this show is unlike any other.
I’d like to remind you to download The Grand App, free on the App Store or Google Play, to get special behind the scenes interviews with the cast and production staff. The App is also a great way to purchase tickets, stay current on what’s going on at the Grand, and be the first to know about all our auditions. Please make sure to join us this holiday season for Amahl and the Night Visitors and A Christmas Carol, and help us spread the word about the Grand Theatre and the professional quality and fun productions at our community’s theatre! Thanks so much for joining us and enjoy the show! Seth Miller Artistic and Executive Director The Grand Theatre
A Word from the STAGE DIRECTOR
I
f you are reading this perhaps you are one of three people left in the world who have NOT seen The Rocky Horror Show and want to know what it’s about. Or maybe you are a HUGE fan of this phantasmagoric combination of theatre, B-movie sci-fi, dragfest, and cult favorite. I was one of the former. I have come to love this crazy fairy-tale, out-there, in your face romp that asks us to suspend our disbelief and go for a wild ride with Brad and Janet as they lose their innocence, find themselves, lose each other by way of a sexual journey with the alien beings of Frank ‘N’ Furter’s castle-spaceship and finally reconcile their love for each other. Along our way, I hope that we each fall for a different character depending on our proclivities and perhaps fall a little more in love with our own crazy selves. We ask that you enjoy yourselves and remember that this talented cast of people on this stage is here to entertain you while not being completely distracted by your involvement. Sooooo…. let’s do the Time Warp again!
