The final weekend before Halloween is creeping up on us. Want something entertaining to do? My friends at Visit Wichita have compiled a list of things you can do in Doo-Dah. Here's some highlighted happening. Have fun, and be safe!
THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW 2019
OCT. 25, 2019
Time: 11:59 p.m. Admission: Tickets $10; Participation Kit $5
Location: Orpheum Theatre, 200 N. Broadway St., Ste. 330
This notorious horror parody, a fast-paced potpourri of camp, sci-fi and rock ‘n roll exploits the naivety of couple Brad and Janet after they stumble upon the lair of eccentric Dr. Frank-N-Furter. This bizarre musical starring Meat Loaf, Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon and Richard O’Brien bombed its original release, but has since created a cult following at midnight showings.
