Let’s do the Time Warp… Again!

But for the first time in 2025! Why keep our fans waiting with such devoted antici–

There’s no better way to set the tone of survival for whatever madness the new year may throw our way than with the cult classic, rock movie musical and audience favourite, THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW! There’s absolutely no better time to see and experience this pop-culture landmark than the the way it is meant to be seen – on the big screen, in the dark, and with a raucous Rio Theatre audience who are just as into it as you are.

Whether you’re a Virgin or a veteran, you’ll have a blast!

Even better? Joyful chaos creature and the Rio’s own legendary host, DANDY, will be on-hand to guide the Virgins (and veterans!) through all the do’s-and-don’ts of this monumentally experiential cinematic phenomenon.

As always, costumes and audience participation are highly encouraged – because costume contest! (In other words: Prizes! Here’s your chance to go all out and let your freak flag fly, people.) The ticket price includes a fun prop bag, too!

Your own props are also very welcome, but please – whatever you do – DO NOT BRING RICE OR CONFETTI!

Friday, January 3
