The Rocky Horror Show will celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2023. The show first opened at London’s Royal Court Theatre Upstairs in June 1973. This year, there’s going to be a six-week residency at the Peacock Theatre starring Ore Oduba donning fishnets and a major UK tour visiting theatres all over the country.
The Rocky Horror Show is undoubtedly one of the most iconic shows of all time. Performing songs embedded in pop culture, this incredible cast will light up the stage. Throughout the year, there will be a number of special celebrations to honor this monumental occasion, ensuring a party that transcends the stage into the audience.
Richard O’Brien said: “Back in the 1970’s when someone asked me to entertain the Christmas staff party at the EMI Film Studios and I turned up with a song called Science Fiction Double Feature who would have known this was the germ of the idea to turn into today what is The Rocky Horror Show”. He went on to say, “To be celebrating fifty years is beyond my wildest expectations”.
Tickets to Rocky Horror Show are available here.
The Rocky Horror Picture Show runs from 5th May to 10th June 2023 at The Peacock Theatre, Portugal Street, London WC2A 2HT .
