  • The Rocky Horror Picture Show - 50th Anniversary (

Sunday 19 October, 7:30pm - In the theatre (Age rating: 12A)
All tickets £5

Sweethearts Brad Majors and Janet Weiss find themselves stranded when their car breaks down during a storm. Seeking help, they stumble upon a mysterious castle inhabited by a bizarre group of characters led by the flamboyant Dr. Frank-N-Furter, a self-proclaimed ""sweet transvestite from Transsexual, Transylvania."" Frank-N-Furter is unveiling his latest creation: a muscular, artificial man named Rocky.

As the night unfolds, Brad and Janet are drawn into the castle’s strange and seductive world, where conventional norms are turned upside down through music, gender-bending performances, and sexual liberation. What began as a search for shelter becomes a surreal journey of self-discovery and chaos.

A cult classic, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a musical satire of science fiction and horror B-movies, celebrated for its campy style, catchy songs, and boundary-pushing themes.

Age rating: 12A - contains moderate sex references, violence, brief nudity, infrequent strong language
