HONOLULU (July 1, 2008) — Held over a second
time to accommodate demand, Manoa Valley Theatre's popular
production of Richard O'Brien's Rocky Horror Show ,
the biggest and baddest rock'n'roll musical in the universe,
will now run through August 3.
Spoofing America 's mid-century science fiction and horror
flicks, Rocky Horror Show lovingly skewers each
cliché with rock music, comedy, and wacky gender-bending
sensuality. On
the way to visit an old college professor, two clean-cut kids
run into tire trouble and seek help at the sight of a light
down the road. It's coming from the Frankenstein place where
Dr. Frank N. Furter is in the midst of one of his maniacal
experiments. What follows is a night of fun, frolics and frivolity
with that sweet transvestite and his motley crew of misfits.
Complete with sass from the audience, cascading toilet paper
and an array of other audience participation props, this deliberately
kitschy rock 'n' roll sci fi gothic is more fun than ever!
