The Rocky Horror Picture Show at Clinton Street Theater

Since 1978, Clinton Street Theater has screened The Rocky Horror Picture Show weekly. Moviegoers are encouraged to dress up as one of the characters and bring along theater approved props for a night of fun and outrageous entertainment.

So what’s the movie all about? 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 out of this universe people who are holding an Annual Transylvanian Convention. Soon an unbelievable night unfolds, led by the mad scientist Frank-n-Furter.

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