Our Review:
9 November 2010
Although it is due to hang up its heels and end its four year tour, Christopher Luscombe’s flawless production of [Richard O’Brien]’s Rocky Horror Show is still theatre’s most excitingly monstrous musical.
It's the classic American love story: boy meets girl and falls in love; boy and girl set off to celebrate their engagement, their car tyre explodes and they are forced to take shelter in the arms of a dark Transylvanian transvestite master.
David Bedella’s Frank N. Furter is scintillating. In the sorry history of star turns, only Bedella has earned his place as a true rival to Tim Curry’s original, vocally oozing a rich, American sex appeal whilst finding an often overlooked vulnerability in the role.
Janet Bird's witty set design is an acutely observed homage to b-movies of the era, subtle yet inventive in its execution, cleverly using the low-fi technologies of early cinema in its shadow play and trick...
