The revival of The Rocky Horror Show is now open on Broadway!
Luke Evans and the star-studded cast of the musical walked the red carpet on Thursday night (April 23) at Studio 54 in New York City.
Also joining him in the cast are Stephanie Hsu, Andrew Durand, Juliette Lewis, Michaela Jae Rodriguez, Amber Gray, Rachel Dratch, Josh Rivera, and Harvey Guillen, who were all spotted on the carpet as well.
Some of the opening night guests included The Rocky Horror Picture Show movie actress Susan Sarandon, as well as Jane Krakowski, Anna Wintour, and Marc Jacobs, among others.
Entertainment Weekly raved about Luke‘s performance, saying he gives a “commanding performance” and you “simply can’t take your eyes off of him… [He] manages to capture the character’s scintillating combination of dangerous sexuality and emotional vulnerability, all while adding his own devilish spin.”
The New York Times gave the show a “Critic’s Pick” selection!
The limited run is currently scheduled to end on July 19, following an extension due to high demand. Get your tickets now!
The movie, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, actually came after the stage version. The Rocky Horror Show debuted in London in 1973, two years before the movie was released in 1975. The film eventually became a cult classic with midnight screenings that included plenty of audience interaction. You can expect some of that on Broadway too!
