Star of stage and screen Jason Donovan is coming back to the West End later this year in The Rocky Horror Show stage musical.
Jason will return to the role of Frank ‘N’ Furter in the smash-hit cult musical, playing the West End’s Dominion Theatre in London for 18 performances only from 6 to 20 September 2024 – with tickets now on sale.
The Rocky Horror Show‘s short run at the Dominion Theatre in London is part of a 2024 and 2025 tour for the musical, that will also include Jason starring in the show across the UK from 19 August 2024 to 1 February 2025 (except Malvern, Woking & Liverpool).
Other Rocky Horror tour dates include Bromley, High Wycombe, Malvern, Bath, Glasgow, Cardiff, Sheffield, a Christmas 2024 season at Liverpool Playhouse Theatre from 3 December 2024 to 4 January 2025, and Newcastle.
Neighbours star and pop singer Jason Donovan first made his West End debut way back in 1991 playing Joseph in the London revival of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and has gone on to have a successful stage career, with credits including Priscilla Queen of the Desert, and Grease The Musical.
Jason Donovan has played the lead role of Frank ‘N’ Furter a number of times before, including last year – and also this year – in the Australian production.
Jason said in a statement: “I am thrilled to dive into the exhilarating role of Frank ‘n’ Furter with a fantastic new cast and Timewarp with audiences throughout the UK. We promise to deliver the freshest Rocky EVER, that audiences will not forget. So, buckle up, as the show promises to be a wild and wicked ride!”
