The Rocky Horror Show on Fallon: New Broadway Cast

0:00On April 28th, the Rocky Horror Show is stepping into the spotlight on the Tonight Show star and Jimmy Fallon this Monday, May 4th, at 11. 35 p.m. Eastern, the full Broadway cast is showing up, including stars like Rachel Dratch, Luke Evans, Stephanie S.U., Juliet Lewis, and Michaela J. Rodriguez. They are performing one song, but which one remains a mystery for now? This wild rock musical by Richard O'Brien has been a queer favorite for decades. It tracks a couple, Brad and Janon, who end up at a creepy castle in a storm and meet the mad scientist Dr. Frankenberger and his alien crew. Chaos, Glitter, and Tooms follow from there. From underground vibes, it exploded to London's West End, hit Broadway in 1975, and became a cult film classic. It is popped up in shows like Glee and a 2016 TV remake, keeping new fans hooked. Now, after more than 20 years off Broadway, a fresh production directed by Tony winner Sam Pinkleton opened last Thursday.

Expect this balanced spot to amp up the buzz for the revival, blending old school camp with today's energy. From the spotlight, powered by AI, this is Entertainment and Celebrity News today.
