DUST off your basque and dig out your fishnets – The Rocky Horror Show is coming to Southampton this week.

Richard O’Brien’s outrageous classic The Rocky Horror Show will thrust its way into The Mayflower on Monday, with Olivier Award winner David Bedella starring as the celebrated Frank ’n’ Furter.

This irresistible riot has seduced audiences all over the world for more than thirty years so whether you’re a die-hard fan who has their dress up outfit at the ready or a Rocky Virgin, it’s time to celebrate this infamous adventure like never before.

Brush up on those pelvic thrusts, squeeze into that corset and slip back into those killer stilettos because the world’s favourite rock ’n’ roll musical is back with a vengeance!

Celebrity chef Ainsley Harriott is stepping into the role of the narrator at Southampton. He promises to bring lots of energy and ad-libbing to the role. Turn to page 31 for an interview with him.

The Rocky Horror Show tells the story of engaged sweethearts Brad and Janet who are forced to seek refuge in a castle inhabited by a bizarre group of people led by cross dressing Frank ’n’ Furter. Featuring the classics Sweet Transvestite, Damit Janet and The Time Warp, this is the craziest party you’ll ever go to.

The show runs until Satuday, January 23.
