The Rocky Horror Show is returning to New York in a blaze of fishnets and glitter.
We’ve just caught our first look at Luke Evans in rehearsal as Frank-N-Furter, guided by director Sam Pinkleton, setting the stage for what promises to be an energetic, eccentric revival this spring.
The iconic Richard O’Brien musical is set to start previews on March 26, 2026, with opening night at Studio 54 scheduled for April 23. But don’t wait as the show is a limited run, wrapping up on June 21, 2026.

The Rocky Horror Show has a one-of-a-kind legacy.
It first hit London’s Royal Court Theatre in 1973 and never really left the spotlight. Across five decades, it’s run nonstop somewhere in the world, been translated into over a dozen languages, and entertained more than 40 million fans.
The Broadway version is expected to deliver all the classic, high-energy numbers that have kept the cult going including Dammit Janet, Touch-a, Touch-a, Touch-a Touch Me, Hot Patootie, and, naturally, Time Warp.
For the uninitiated, The Rocky Horror Show is the bizarre, beloved tale of straight-laced Brad and Janet.
A broken-down car leads them to the outrageous Dr. Frank-N-Furter’s mansion, where nothing goes according to plan. Chaos, sci-fi, and a lot of audience participation ensue.
With Evans in full glam and Pinkleton calling the shots, this is one Broadway party we don’t plan to miss.
