A long-standing Portland attraction is once again opening its doors. Get your tickets for Clinton Street Theater’s screening of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Since 1978, The Clinton Street Theater has been showing The Rocky Horror Picture Show weekly. Moviegoers were encouraged to dress up as one of the characters and bring along theater approved props for a night of fun and outrageous entertainment. Due to the pandemic, the theatre had to push pause on its midnight screening.

Have you never been to a midnight showing of the cult classic? You should add it to your Portland bucket list. The 1975 motion picture plot follows a newly engaged couple, Brad Majors and Janet Weiss, who are lost with a flat tire on a dark, rainy night. Seeking a telephone to call for help, the couple walks to a nearby castle where they meet a group of downright strange people who are holding an Annual Transylvanian Convention.

The musical numbers, signature moves and audience participation make this an ideal film to watch with a crowd.

Now it’s time to bust out your best costume and practice your Time Warp. The movie begins at midnight, preceded by doors opening at 11 p.m., and the pre-show starting at 11:30 p.m.

Tickets are $12 plus a $2 service fee. Tickets can be purchase in advance.

The Clinton Street Theater is located at 2522 SE Clinton Street in Portland. For more information about this event and to purchase your tickets, visit the theater’s website.
