Continuing a Halloween-season tradition, Bucks County Playhouse will, once again, present its production of Richard O’Brien’s “The Rocky Horror Show,” from Friday, Oct. 12 through Sunday, Oct. 28.
The production features direction by Playhouse Artistic Associate Hunter Foster, who directed this season’s record-breaking “Million Dollar Quartet” and “42nd Street,” and choreography by Playhouse Artistic Associate Lorin Latarro.
“This year we are adding to the fun. All patrons will now have Time Warp seats,” said Producer Stephen Kocis. “A Playhouse prop bag will be available for each attendee and everyone will be invited to come up on stage and dance the Time Warp with the cast.”
Mason Alexander Park (direct from the National Tour of “Hedwig and the Angry Inch”) will make his Playhouse debut in the role of as Dr. Frank-N-Furter. The production will see the return of Alyse Alan Louis as Janet (Broadway’s original cast of “Amélie” and “Mamma Mia”).
Tim Rogan is Rocky (national tours of “Camelot” as Lancelot and “Disney’s Beauty and the Beast” as Gaston), and Danielle Diniz returns as a Phantom (National Tour of “Dirty Dancing”).
They are joined by Playhouse “Rocky” first-timers including: Zach Cossman as Brad (BCP’s “Million Dollar Quartet” and “Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story”), Daisy Wright as Columbia (Phyllis from BCP’s “42nd Street”), Trent Saunders as Riff Raff, and Christina Sajous as Magenta (Broadway’s Spongebob Squarepants” and “American Idiot”).
Michael Thomas Holmes is Narrator/Dr. Scott (“The Producers” and Broadway’s “Oklahoma!”), and Alec Irion is Eddie.
“The Rocky Horror Show,” with book, music and lyrics by Richard O’Brien, is a musical that inspired the 1975 classic cult film, “The Rocky Horror Picture Show.” It follows innocent couple Brad and Janet as they seek shelter at a mysterious old castle on a dark and stormy night, where they encounter transvestite Dr. FrankN-Furter, his “perfect” creation Rocky, and an assortment of other crazy creatures.
Tickets start at $60. Special discounts are available for groups of 10 or more. No outside prop bags will be permitted.
