NORWELL, MA Issued June 11, 2018… The Academy of The Company Theatre (A.C.T.) Conservatory presents the musical theatre cult classic The Rocky Horror Show, by Richard O’Brien, on Thursday, July 12 and Friday, July 13, 7:30 pm, at The Company Theatre Center for the Arts, 30 Accord Park Drive, Norwell. The production is directed by Steve Shannon with musical direction by Melissa Carubia. The Rocky Horror Show is a special production of The Company Theatre’s A.C.T. Summer Workshop.
It was a fateful night when Brad and Janet, two utterly normal young people in love, end up in a castle full of strange Transylvanians. A thunderstorm and a flat tire force them to seek help from Dr. Frank ’N’ Furter — an alien, transvestite scientist with a manic genius and an insatiable libido. The Doctor and his cohorts take Brad and Janet on a wild ride of misadventures in a hilarious and lusty homage to the classic B sci-fi and horror genres. That sweet transvestite and his motley crew will have the entire audience doing the Time Warp in the deliberately kitschy rock musical, The Rocky Horror Show. Contains strong language and intense adult themes.
A.C.T. was founded in 1987 by Zoe Bradford, Michael Joseph and Jordie Saucerman, with a mission to discover the creative spirit in each child in an enjoyable and challenging atmosphere and to build self-confidence through the experience of the arts.
