Jason Donovan is donning the fishnets once again.
The Aussie pop icon is stepping back into the heels of Frank ‘n’ Furter as The Rocky Horror Show hits the road in 2026 across the UK, with performances confirmed at select venues.
After a sold-out Christmas run in Liverpool last year, Jason is back by popular demand, with the tour kicking off in January at Edinburgh’s Playhouse.
He’ll then strut across stages in Liverpool in May, Eastbourne later that month, and wrap up in Bristol in July. See full tour dates here
Alongside Jason, another fan favourite, Stephen Webb, is also returning to the madness, sharing the Frank ‘n’ Furter role at selected venues.
Joining the cast are James Bisp as Brad, Haley Flaherty as Janet, Ryan Carter-Wilson as Riff Raff, and Laura Bird doubling up as Magenta and the Usherette. Daisy Steere will play Columbia, Morgan Jackson as Rocky, and Edward Bullingham takes on the roles of Eddie and Dr Scott.
The Narrator duties will be split between comedian Nathan Caton and Motherland star Jackie Clune.
First staged in 1973 in front of just 63 people, The Rocky Horror Show has grown into a global juggernaut.
It’s now the longest-running contemporary musical in the world, seen by over 30 million people in 30 countries and translated into 20 languages.
The 1975 film version, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, is still playing in cinemas worldwide, with a box office haul of over $135 million. Its cult status endures, making it the longest-running theatrical release in cinema history.
