“I couldn’t be more thrilled to slip into the heels and fishnets of this iconic production with an iconic star in Jason Donovan that means so much to so many people. Hopefully after they have seen me in my musical theatre debut, Rocky Horror will still mean special things to them”, said Pete.

Since it first opened in London in 1973 at the Royal Court’s Theatre Upstairs, The Rocky Horror Show has been continuously on stage somewhere in the world and has paved its way into history as one of the classics of musical theatre.
