Reviving it in a venue so steeped in sex, spectacle, and decadence feels less like a bold idea than an obvious one. Produced by the Roundabout Theatre Company and directed by Sam Pinkleton, this revival leans fully into the material's identity as an event.
The upcoming Broadway revival of The Rocky Horror Show revealed its full cast today, and it is a who's who of who wants to crossdress. Along with the previously announced Luke Evans as Dr. Frank-N-Furter, Oscar nominee Stephanie Hsu (Everything Everywhere All at Once) will return to Broadway for the first time since starring in 2016's SpongeBob Squarepants: The Musical to play Janet. Her bland husband, Brad, will be played by Tony nominee Andrew Durand (Dead Outlaw).
