The Rocky Horror Picture Show returns to the Rotary Performing Arts Centre in Okotoks this weekend.
The 1975 cult classic — and all the rituals that go along with it — will be screened on Saturday, Oct. 14 at 7:30 p.m.
The low-budget flick that flopped at the box office but later became a cult favourite concerns the misadventures of Brad Majors and Janet Weiss inside a strange mansion they come across on a rainy night. Their car breaks down in the woods and they seek refuge in a towering castle nearby.
Greeting them at the door is a ghoulish butler named Riff Raff who introduces them to a bacchanalian collection of partygoers dressed in outfits from some sort of interplanetary thrift shop.
Those attending the screening are encouraged to come in costume for a chance to win a prize.
Dr. Jared McCollum will serve as the evening’s MC.
Tickets, which include a prop package, are $20 in advance or $30 at the door.
The event is rated 18+ and tickets can be found at OkotoksCulture.ca or Showpass.com under ‘Rocky Horror Picture Show @RPAC’.
