Get ready to do the Time Warp again—because The Rocky Horror Picture Show is returning to the big screen at the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts this weekend for a special 50th anniversary celebration.

The one-night-only event takes place Sunday, October 12, at 7:30 p.m. in the Walt Disney Theater, bringing together original cast members Barry Bostwick (Brad Majors), Nell Campbell (Columbia), and Patricia Quinn (Magenta) for an evening honoring the cult classic’s enduring legacy.

Fans can enjoy a screening of the original, unedited film accompanied by a live shadow cast performance and the signature audience participation that has made Rocky Horror a cultural phenomenon for five decades. Attendees are encouraged to come in costume for a themed contest and can view memorabilia displays featuring artifacts and even an authentic costume from the movie.

Each ticket includes a complimentary bag of official Rocky Horror props for interactive fun during the screening. For safety reasons, no outside props will be permitted.

Add-On Experiences

Guests can extend the celebration with two exclusive experiences:

  • The After Party: A post-show gathering featuring themed drinks, music, videos, prizes, and a chance to mingle with the shadow cast—keeping the Rocky Horror energy going late into the night.

  • VIP Meet & Greet ($175): Fans can meet Barry Bostwick, Nell Campbell, and Patricia Quinn in person, take a photo with them, and receive an autograph on a personal item or a collectible photo. The package also includes a special Rocky Horror VIP laminate.

With its blend of camp, comedy, and rock ‘n’ roll, The Rocky Horror Picture Show continues to captivate audiences 50 years after its debut. This weekend’s event offers longtime fans and first-timers alike the chance to celebrate the film’s legacy in true Rocky Horror fashion—complete with costumes, call-backs, and plenty of audience participation.
