Clarskville's Roxy Regional TheatreClarksville, TN – Richard O’Brien’s cult classic “The Rocky Horror Show” returns to the Roxy Regional Theatre this Thursday, October 13th, 2022 at 7:00pm.

It’s just a jump to downtown Clarksville, and then a step to the corner of Franklin and First, to catch this annual tradition.  Performances often sell out, so don’t delay in making your reservations!

In keeping with our pay-what-you-can opening night tradition, all tickets not pre-sold at the regular price will go on sale at 6:30pm Thursday for a $5.00 minimum donation.




Derek Alexander (last seen on the Roxy stage in The Color Purple and as Norman Cornell in The Star-Spangled Girl) and Ariana Perlson (whom you will remember as Rapunzel in Into the Woods) star as Brad Majors and his fiancée Janet Weiss — a wholesome, well-behaved, utterly normal young couple in love — who innocently set out to visit an old professor one fateful night.  
 
The night out is destined to be one they will never forget, as a thunderstorm and a flat tire lead them to the castle of Dr. Frank ‘N’ Furter, an alien, transvestite scientist with a manic genius and insatiable libido, played by a stiletto and fishnet stocking-clad Sam Alan Johnson (Prince Charming in Into the Woods).
 
Roxy Regional Theatre's Rocky Horror 2022When Brad, Janet, and Frank ‘N’ Furter’s cohorts are swept up into the scientist’s latest experiment, the night’s misadventures will cause Brad and Janet to question themselves, each other, love and lust.  A loving homage to the cult-classic, sci-fi film and horror genres with an irresistible rock ‘n’ roll score, this is a hilarious, wild ride that Clarksville will not soon forget.
 
Directed and choreographed by Emily Ruck with music direction by Tyler Saunders, “The Rocky Horror Show” also features Brooke Bennish as Riff Raff, Victoria Preisman as Magenta, Faith Konty as Columbia, Dave Stishan as Eddie and Dr. Scott, Brett Vance as Rocky, and David Graham as the Narrator.  Prepare to dance the “Time Warp” like never before to live music provided by Tyler Saunders on piano, Thad Wallus on guitar, Caleb Barlow on bass, and Bernard Lott on drums.

Bags of props will be available for $5.00 in the lobby one hour prior to performances. Outside props will NOT be permitted, as they may damage the theatre or injure actors and/or audience members.
