The upcoming production of 'The Rocky Horror Show' at Bucks County Playhouse will run from October 10 to November 2, 2025, featuring Frankie Grande reprising his role as Dr. Frank-N-Furter for the third consecutive year, following record-breaking performances in 2023 and 2024.

Directed by Hunter Foster with choreography by Shannon Lewis, the show boasts a talented cast including returning actors Jordan Bollwerk, Natalie Welch, Tim Shea, Alyssa Wray, and Stanley Martin, alongside new cast members Madeline Benoit and Patrick Richwood.

This production is part of an annual tradition at the historic Bucks County Playhouse, with a creative team led by resident director Greg Santos and featuring scenic, costume, lighting, and sound designs by a team headed by Jeffrey Perri, Nicole V. Moody, and others.

'The Rocky Horror Show,' created by Richard O’Brien, originally opened in London in 1973 and had a Broadway run in 1975 led by Tim Curry; a Broadway revival is scheduled for 2026.

Based on the cult classic 1975 film, the musical follows college students Brad and Janet as they encounter the eccentric Dr. Frank-N-Furter in a mysterious castle, where he conducts a maniacal experiment to create Rocky, with themes of sci-fi, comedy, and musical parody.

The show features a rock 'n' roll score and is known for its provocative subject matter, with parental discretion advised.

Performances are scheduled Tuesday through Sunday, with ticket prices starting at $75, and a limited number of $39 tickets available via an online lottery, along with group discounts and an invitation for audience members to dance the Time Warp on stage.

While the production has been a record-breaking success in 2023 and 2024, this will be the final run at Bucks County Playhouse for this show, as the rights will not be available in 2026, making this a special farewell for Frankie Grande in this role.

Additional local news includes the cancellation of a planning commission meeting in New Hope, a scheduled bridge closure affecting traffic, and a guide to apple picking in the area for 2025.

Frankie Grande, a well-known performer and social media star with Broadway credits and TV appearances, has previously performed this role at Bucks County Playhouse and is returning for what will be his last performance in this production.
