Get ready to do the Time Warp again! Dead Man’s Rocky is the Dayton area’s newest year-round Rocky Horror shadowcast, bringing wild, no-holds-barred energy to the Sorg Opera House. This isn’t just a screening—it’s a full-blown spectacle featuring a rowdy cast of costumed performers, over-the-top audience participation, shout-along obscenities, surprise giveaways, flying toilet paper, and dance breaks that’ll shake the rafters. Leave your rice and toast at home—outside props aren’t allowed, but you can snag an official prop bag in the lobby to join in on the chaos. Recommended for ages 18+ (seriously—this isn’t your grandma’s movie night). If you bring the kids, don’t say we didn’t warn you.
The Rocky Horror Picture Show is more than a cult classic—it's a cultural phenomenon. Since its 1975 release, the film has inspired generations of fans with its campy charm, rock ‘n’ roll attitude, and celebration of self-expression. Midnight showings with shadowcasts began almost immediately and continue to this day, creating a global community of misfits, theater lovers, and proud weirdos. Whether you're a seasoned Time Warper or a first-time virgin, you're stepping into a legacy that’s been dancing in fishnets and shouting “Dammit, Janet!” for nearly 50 years.
