The Rocky Horror Picture Show celebrates 50 years with Barry Bostwick at the Warner Theatre

The cult classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show, the longest-running theatrical release in film history, is celebrating its 50th anniversary with a special tour featuring original cast member Barry Bostwick, who famously played Brad Majors. Bostwick will be appearing at the Warner Theatre in Torrington, CT, on Wednesday, October 30, at 7:30 PM.
Fans in Torrington will have the chance to meet Barry Bostwick, take part in a costume contest, and enjoy a live performance by the Shadow Cast: Apoca-lips, who will act out iconic scenes on stage while the full, unedited film is projected behind them. This screening will showcase a never-before-seen 4K version of the movie, making it a truly unforgettable experience.
Bostwick reflects on the film’s enduring legacy:
“Rocky has changed lives, not just ours, and had a profound effect on how we accept our differences in this world. We were fitted for our corsets and high heels and enthusiastically started singing songs that have endured for all these years. And ‘dammit Janet’! I have made nerds cool.”

The 1975 cult favorite stars Tim Curry as the flamboyant Frank-N-Furter, Bostwick and Susan Sarandon as the nerdy couple Brad and Janet, Meat Loaf as Eddie, Nell Campbell as Columbia, and Patricia Quinn as Magenta, servant to Riff Raff, played by creator Richard O’Brien. The film has achieved an unparalleled milestone as the longest-running theatrical release in the world.
Limited VIP tickets are available, offering an exclusive meet-and-greet with Bostwick. Audiences can expect a fully interactive experience, complete with dancing along to the Time Warp. It’s the ultimate Rocky Horror celebration—“a one-of-a-kind happening.”
