Join in with a mass ‘Rocky-aoke’
Published - Monday, 14 September, 2009
To celebrate the fact that The Rocky Horror Show is coming to Milton Keynes Theatre, on Saturday 19 September at Midsummer Place there will be a ‘Rocky-aoke’ and fancy dress competition! Together with Heart Radio anyone can come along and sing and/or be in fancy dress between 10 am and 4pm (judging at 1pm). This is going to be an event not to be missed!

This autumn Richard O’Brien’s outrageous classic The Rocky Horror Show will thrust its way through the UK featuring Olivier Award winner David Bedella starring as the celebrated Frank ‘n’ Furter and its coming to Milton Keynes Theatre 5-10 October. 

The Rocky Horror Show tells the story of engaged sweethearts Brad and Janet who are forced to seek refuge in a castle full of the maddest, baddest and sexiest group the world has ever seen. Featuring the timeless classics Sweet Transvestite, Damit Janet and The Time Warp, this is the craziest party you’ll ever go to, so select your seats, dress to impress and get ready for Rocky!

David Bedella, best known for creating the roles of Satan/Warm Up Man in Jerry Springer - The Opera for which he won Best Musical Actor in 2004, will reprise his role as sweet transsexual Frank ‘n’ Furter in this years tour.  David will be joined by Steve Pemberton (The League of Gentlemen, Psychoville) who takes the part of the smooth-talking, velvet-voiced Narrator.

This irresistible riot has seduced audiences all over the world for more than thirty years so whether you’re a die-hard fan or a Rocky Virgin, it’s time to celebrate this infamous adventure like never before. Brush up on those pelvic thrusts, squeeze into that corset and slip back into those killer stilettos because the world’s favourite rock ‘n’ roll musical is back with a vengeance!
