The Rocky Horror Show plays Studio 54 on Broadway, booking through 28 February 2027. Richard O'Brien's 1973 cult musical is staged by Roundabout Theatre Company and directed by Tony winner Sam Pinkleton, and it runs 1 hour 50 minutes with one 15-minute intermission.
The Rocky Horror Show at Studio 54: the cult musical on Broadway
Brad and Janet are newly engaged, hopelessly square, and driving through a storm when the tire goes. The nearest light is a castle. Inside is Dr. Frank-N-Furter, a scientist from the planet Transsexual in the galaxy of Transylvania, throwing a party to unveil the man he has built in his laboratory. What follows is part B-movie parody, part rock concert, and part invitation to abandon whatever you walked in believing about yourself.
Richard O'Brien wrote the stage show in 1973 as a love letter to the science-fiction and horror films he grew up on, and the film version, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, followed in 1975. Expect songs including Sweet Transvestite, Dammit Janet and the Time Warp.

Can you join in at The Rocky Horror Show?
Yes, but choose your call-outs carefully. The production's own guidance is that the famous call-outs grew out of film screenings, and that this is a Broadway musical, not a midnight showing of the film, so a well-timed line is welcome while respecting the audience members who want to hear the show and the actors performing live. There is no dress code, so you can dress up or come as you are. Photography and recording are not allowed during the performance.
Studio 54: from nightclub to Broadway house
Studio 54 was the most notorious nightclub in New York before it became a Broadway theater, which makes it a fitting home for a show about a party getting out of hand. It sits at 254 West 54th Street, between Broadway and 8th Avenue, with seating in the orchestra and the mezzanine above. The theater has no elevator, and limited accessible seating is available in the orchestra.

What the critics say
“Dratch will probably say something hysterically quelling; Evans will probably knock your stockings off...The point of 'Rocky Horror' is to lose control. C’mon, let’s do it again.”
“This Roundabout production at Studio 54 just isn't all that much fun, being mostly effortful, maddening and finally exhausting.”
“Through Frank, O'Brien has created a safe zone for oddballs: a sexual dreamland of default pansexuality where deviance is the norm.”
“When freaks make something freaky and fabulous for themselves, it can end up being a gift for everyone.”
“Evans manages to capture the character's scintillating combination of dangerous sexuality and emotional vulnerability, all while adding his own devilish spin.”
“The Rocky Horror Show storms onto Broadway with a star-studded cast.”
“the libidinous antics of 'The Rocky Horror Show' still haven't lost their spicy fun”
“If fate decrees that we must do the Time Warp again, at least we have Sam Pinkleton's staging with its wittily off-kilter casting choices for the weird henchpersons and wide-eyed interlopers entangled in the sinister doings over at the Frankenstein place.”
““This current incarnation is a hit and miss with some exceptional performances and memorable moments, but the sensory overload at times clouds over the message.””
“Luke Evans earns every inch of those heels, but Roundabout’s revival of The Rocky Horror Show delivers more controlled experiment than midnight mayhem.”
“From the moment Luke Evans makes his grand entrance, it's clear he was born for the role”
“Solidly produced, this revival still feels like a missed opportunity to be the wild must-attend event of the season. It’s Rocky Horror at Studio 54 for crying out loud.”
“Durand and Hsu are excellent as Brad and Janet, and Evans is giving a glorious performance as Frank-N-Furter”
“the cast is stellar and the staging is inventive, but the production just doesn’t measure up to the original…The original for me is the movie.”
“The Rocky Horror Show is the whole package.”
“Sam Pinkleton’s affectionately campy new revival pays homage to the outsider, downtown spirit of the half-century-old material, but the show emerges as more of a museum piece than a provocation.”
