This low-budget freak show and cult classic concerns the misadventures of Brad Majors (Barry Bostwick) and Janet Weiss (Susan Sarandon) inside a strange mansion that they come across on a rainy night.

Their car breaks down in the woods, and they seek refuge in a towering castle nearby. Greeting them at the door is a ghoulish butler named Riff Raff (Richard O'Brien), who introduces them to a bacchanalian collection of partygoers dressed in outfits from some sort of interplanetary thrift shop. The host of this gathering is Dr. Frank N. Furter (Tim Curry), a mad scientist who claims to be from another planet. Soon it's clear that Brad and Janet will be guests for the night, and just what is that mystery meat they're eating for dinner, anyway?

The Center for the Arts is located at located at the corner of Church and College streets off of the square in Murfreesboro. Again, the performance times are at midnight on October 24th through November 1st. Tickets are available online at www.boroarts.org, at the Center's box office located at 110 W.
