The Rocky Horror Show with Duncan James @ Edinburgh Playhouse, Scotland

Follow squeaky-clean sweethearts Brad and Janet on an adventure they'll never forget, with the scandalous Frank 'n' Furter, rippling Rocky and vivacious Magenta. Bursting at the seams with timeless classics, including Sweet Transvestite, Damn It Janet, and of course, the pelvic-thrusting Time Warp, Richard O'Brien's The Rocky Horror Show just doesn't stop. Ready to thrill you with its frothy fun and naughty moments, this is the boldest bash of them all, so fish out the fishnets, buff up your basque and sharpen those stilettos for the rockiest ride of your life! Be warned, this show has rude parts. 'Side-splitting, saucy and hugely entertaining, a truly enduring and endearing masterpiece for everyone to enjoy' (Daily Star) 'The Rocky Horror Show still has audiences rolling in the aisles. It's nigh on impossible not to get on your feet and act like a creature possessed when The Time Warp strikes up' (The Daily Telegraph) 'So fast, so funny, so sexy' (Daily Mail).
