Port to deliver time warp again
THE Rocky Horror Show is set to bring glitter, glamour and chaos to the Port Douglas Clink Theatre this April.
The Clink is preparing for its latest performance and is ready to transform into a wild world of sequins, stilettos and sci-fi seduction as The Rocky Horror Show bursts onto the stage from April 8.
This latest bold, high-energy production brings the cult classic to life with a local cast, a live band and all the outrageous fun audiences expect from one of the world’s most beloved musicals.
As described by the show organisers, this staging promises a fresh, cheeky and unapologetically vibrant take on Richard O’Brien’s iconic creation. Audiences can expect the full Rocky experience, from the time warp to the corsets, delivered with the Clink Theatre’s signature intimacy and community spirit.
“Rocky Horror is unlike anything else we’ve ever staged,” said the producer/director Michael Kerr.
“It’s daring, it’s hilarious and it’s the perfect show to bring our community together for a night of pure escapism,” he said.
Adding to the show’s creative firepower is musical director Jennifer Kerr, whose leadership brings a rich, electrifying sound to the production.
“The score of Rocky Horror is pure electricity. It’s cheeky, bold and instantly iconic,” Ms Kerr said.
“Working with our local musicians to bring that sound to life has been an absolute joy.
“The music breathes, reacts and surges with the cast and that creates a kind of electricity you simply can’t replicate any other way. Our musicians are right there in the thick of it, driving the energy of every scene and the audience will feel that pulse from the moment the show begins.”
The show’s movement is crafted by Bodies in Motion’s Sakia Turner, whose choreography blends precision, character driven storytelling and irresistible energy – ensuring every number lands with impact, humour and a touch of delicious chaos.
Darwin actor Kameron Arthur will play the part of Dr Frank-N-Furter. Mr Arthur recently successfully played the same role at Charles Darwin University Theatre, as part of the show’s 50th anniversary celebration.
With limited seating and strong early demand, patrons are encourages audiences to secure their tickets early.
