Dust off your fishnets and sharpen those stilettos.

The Rocky Horror Show is heading back out on tour with a glittering new cast and fresh energy, ready to thrill audiences across the country from 2025 through to summer 2026.

Celebrating more than 50 years of outrageous fun, the legendary rock and roll musical by Richard O’Brien continues to defy convention, bringing its signature blend of science fiction, horror, comedy and music to new generations of fans.

At the centre of it all is Stephen Webb, who returns to reprise the role of Frank N Furter at select performances, following rave reviews from his previous stints on both the West End and touring productions.

This new tour brings together a cast of remarkable talent, including James Bisp as Brad and Haley Flaherty as Janet, who lead us into the weird and wonderful world of Dr Frank and his mansion of mischief.

Ryan Carter-Wilson will take on the role of Riff Raff, while Laura Bird plays a double role as Magenta and the Usherette.

Daisy Steere returns as the dazzling Columbia, with Morgan Jackson cast as Rocky, and Edward Bullingham taking on Eddie and Dr Scott.

The role of the Narrator will be shared by comedian Nathan Caton and actor Jackie Clune, both promising their own bold spin on the beloved storyteller.

Scottish audiences won’t have long to wait either.

The tour will stop at Eden Court in Inverness from 15 to 20 September 2025, promising Highland fans the boldest bash of the year, right on their doorstep.

Producer Howard Panter said the new cast is bursting with energy and praised the creative team behind the tour.

“This new cast brings an extraordinary energy and freshness to the show,” he said.

“It’s a thrilling mix of talent that promises to delight audiences up and down the country.”

“I’m delighted the Rocky Horror Show will continue to deliver its unique guaranteed party night after night to packed sold-out houses.”

“It’s fierce, fearless and not to be missed.”

The production will once again be directed by Christopher Luscombe and features all the iconic numbers audiences know and love, including Sweet TransvestiteScience Fiction/Double FeatureDammit Janet and the irresistible Time Warp.

Since its original debut in 1973 to just 63 people in a small upstairs theatre in London, the Rocky Horror Show has become a global phenomenon.

It has been translated into over 20 languages, seen by more than 30 million people, and is the longest-running contemporary musical in the world.

It was adapted into a cult classic film in 1975, and still screens around the world nearly 50 years later.

Tickets are on sale now from £10 at rockyhorror.co.uk, with fancy dress strongly encouraged and a gentle word of caution, this show has rude bits.

But most of all, it has heart, humour and the best party atmosphere in theatre.
