The Rocky Horror Show UK Tour is currently touring the UK. Get ready to do the Time Warp and Book Now!
With book, music and lyrics by Richard O’Brien, The Rocky Horror Show UK Tour has been an audience favourite since it first premiered at the Royal Court Theatre on 19 June 1973.
The Rocky Horror Show UK Tour tells the story of Brad and his fiancée Janet, two squeaky clean college kids who meet Dr Frank’n’Furter by chance when their car breaks down outside his house whilst on their way to visit their former college professor. It is an adventure they’ll never forget, with frothy fun, frivolity, frolics and of course, those famous frocks.
Strictly star Joanne Clifton, who has been delighting audiences and receiving rave reviews as Janet, will continue to don her corset and fishnets as she extends her role in the musical extravaganza for a further six months until the end of the 2019 tour. Joanne said: “I absolutely love playing Janet, so I’m delighted to continue with the show throughout the year”.
Blue star Duncan James has excited theatre fans playing the character of Frank n Furter, slipping into a corset and heels with ease. Already wowing Rocky Horror audiences up and down the country, critics agree that Duncan “makes for an awe-inspiring Frank n Furter” (Liverpool Echo) and “adds a new dimension to the character” (Wirral Globe). Bringing just the right amount of cheeky, sensual energy to the stage Duncan continues to thrill. Catch him in Birmingham, Bristol, Blackpool, Dublin, Newcastle, Glasgow, Leeds, Nottingham, Hull and Edinburgh. Duncan said: “I’m just loving every minute. Frank is such an iconic role; it’s an honour to play him.”
In Manchester and Liverpool, Coronation Street legend Beverley Callard performed to sell-out crowds as the first female Narrator. Beverley said: “When the producers asked me to play the Narrator, I couldn’t believe it. I just thought, I can’t say no. I’ve been Time Warping for years!”
Comedian Dom Joly, TV presenter Alison Hammond, comedian Steve Punt and actor Philip Franks continue to share the role of The Narrator in the UK tour. The four stars will take to the stage to perform the iconic role at various moments throughout 2019. Kristian Lavercombe will also surprise audiences as he steps into the Narrator’s shoes for two special performances on 24 June at the Winter Gardens, Blackpool and 22 August at the Leeds Grand Theatre.
From 27 May, James Darch will join the cast to play Brad. James, an accomplished actor with an impressive CV, is currently starring as Pat Casey in Maggie May at The Finborough Theatre. Other credits include An Officer and a Gentleman (UK tour), Wicked (Apollo Victoria), and Mamma Mia (Novello Theatre). James said: “I am absolutely thrilled to be joining the cast of The Rocky Horror Show. It’s mad – there is no denying that. But, as the devoted audiences prove, it’s a story that’s got heart and relevance through every generation. Its infectious energy is still standing the test of time and coming out on top. I can’t wait to put my own small stamp on such a well known and loved character as Brad – bring on the madness!”
The legendary musical extravaganza also stars West End star Stephen Webb as Frank and Kristian Lavercombe, who reprises his role as Riff Raff following more than 1500 performances around the world. Directed by Christopher Luscombe, the smash hit show features all of the famous musical numbers which have made The Rocky Horror Show such a huge hit for over four decades, including “Sweet Transvestite”, “Science Fiction/Double Feature”, “Dammit Janet” and, of course, the timeless floor-filler, “The Time-Warp”.
Other cast include Columbia – Miracle Chance, Eddie/Dr Scott – Ross Chisari, Rocky – Callum Evans, Magenta/Usherette – Laura Harrison, Phantoms – Reece Budin, Shelby Farmer, Katie Monks, Jake Small, Swing & Resident Choreographer – Andrew Ahern, Swing & Dance Captain – Maddie Hope Coelho.
The Rocky Horror Show UK tour will be directed by Christopher Luscombe, designed by Hugh Durrant, costume designs by Sue Blane, choreography by Nathan M Wright, lighting by Nick Richings and sound design by Gareth Owen.
