ABOUT THE SHOW
A humorous tribute to the science fiction and horror B movies of the 1930s through to the early 1960s, the musical tells the story of a newly engaged couple getting caught in a storm and coming to the home of a mad transvestite scientist, Dr Frank-N-Furter, unveiling his new creation, Rocky, a sort of Frankenstein-style monster in the form of an artificially made, fully grown, physically perfect muscle man complete “with blond hair and a tan”.

Casting Notes
This is your time to show us your weird, leave nothing on the table during your auditions and possible callbacks. Remember that everyone in Frank’s mansion is odd and unusual, and we want to see it. Many of the characters’ ages are flexible. We will be looking for character actors who fit the “weird” and can sing the roles. Please note that for many characters costuming will include corsets, fishnets and briefs. All roles are open to consideration regardless of background, ethnicity or sexual/gender orientation.
Roles Available
Rocky Horror
Frank’s beloved creation, Rocky is supposed to be the “perfect man”. Must be very fit. This role will require a state of undress, such as appearing in undergarments (to be negotiated to individual comfort level), but will not contain nudity.
| Age 18-40 | Gender Male | Physicality Codes C, E, F, K, SI | Vocal Range Tenor, A3-G4 – vocal range may be lowered. |
