But one night of this special event trick or treat just isn’t enough so for four nights, October 24, October 25, October 31 and November 1, the Cassidy stage will be transformed into the dark and twisted Frankenstein Place, home of the maniacal Dr. Fran-N-Furter!

“Rocky Horror is the perfect Halloween special event,” says Director Meghan Mohler, “part costume party, part interactive theatrical experience.  This production has all the crazy fun that is always part of the Rocky Horror experience.”  Just as they do for the movie, fans are encouraged to come dressed as characters from the film and respond ritualistically to certain events by using props, yelling jokes, dancing, and cheering.

Once again, the Cassidy production stars Michael D. Chiappe as “Frank’n’Furter”,  James Langa as “Riff Raff”, Kevin Joseph Kelly as “The Narrator” and Tom Castro as “Dr. Scott”.  Joining them onstage are Eric Fancher as “Brad”, Miranda Fantz as “Janet”, Kristin Netzband as “Columbia”, Amiee Collier as “Magenta”, Shawn Perry as “Eddie”, and Peter Haftkowycz as “Rocky” with Josh Baum, Andrea Belser, Caron Wykle, Sarah Clare, Maureen Clark, Lester Currie, Natalia Haftkowycz, Melanie Leibold, Jordan Malin, Tarah Reim and Andy Slimak as the “Phantoms”.  Heidi Herczeg is the Musical Director, with choreography by Jennifer Glowe and costume design by David Glowe.
