Let’s Do the Time-Warp Again! Cult Classic “The Rocky Horror Show” Comes to SLCC's Grand Theater
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (PRWEB) September 17, 2018 -- The Grand Theatre, sponsored by Salt Lake Community College, is proud to present Richard O’Brien’s The Rocky Horror Show, running October 4 – 27, 2018.
As a humorous tribute to classic science fiction and B-horror films, The Rocky Horror Show centers around squeaky clean couple, Brad and Janet. The pair innocently sets out to see an old professor, but car trouble forces them to seek help at the castle of the alien-transvestite scientist, Dr. Frank N. Furter. As they get mixed up in the night’s misadventures, they begin to question everything they know. Filled with over-the-top characters, outrageous plot twists and an unforgettable rock score, this show is unlike any other.
The Grand will have prop bags available for purchase and asks that patrons refrain from bringing their own props.
In addition, on the show’s opening night The Grand will have an American Sign Language interpreter to sign the performance. Those in need of an interpreter can reserve seats by contacting Breezy Bassett at 801-957-3033 or Breanna.Bassett(at)slcc.edu.
“The Rocky Horror Show” is under the direction of Anne Stewart Mark, with musical direction by Dave Evanoff. Performances will take place Wednesday-Saturday at 7:30 p.m. with a Saturday matinee at 2 p.m. Tickets are $17 - $23 and can be purchased at 801-957-3322 or http://www.GrandTheatreCompany.com.
