Campus Players teams with Magic City Misfits for 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show'
Minot State University's Campus Players will host the Magic City Misfits presentation of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" Oct. 30 at 11:15 p.m. in Aleshire Theater. Doors will open at 10:45 p.m. The pre-show event will begin at 11:15 p.m., with the screening to begin at 11:45 p.m.
MSU Campus Players will host the unrepentantly wicked and unpredictably weird cult-classic, "The Rocky Horror Picture Show," with a special guest performance by the Magic City Misfits. The Magic City Misfits will perform as a shadow cast alongside the screening of the movie as the eclectic cast, of Dr. Frank-N-Further, Rocky, Riff-Raff, Magenta, Columbia and more, titillates the Aleshire Theatre screen.
This rock-fueled, pseudo-thriller is about sweethearts, Brad and Janet (Barry Bostwick and Susan Sarandon) and their misadventures in the eerie and erotically festive castle of Dr. Frank-N-Further (Tim Curry), or is it? From preshow antics to closing credits, costumes and audience participation is encouraged.
"I can't think of a better way to usher in the Halloween weekend," said Krys Zorbaugh, MSU Campus Players president. "MSU Campus Players are very excited to team with the Magic City Misfits this year for our annual Halloween event, which is being held the night before Halloween. This event is truly for open-minded people looking for something outrageous and fun to do in Minot. The best part about this traditionally irreverent event is that it is free and open to the community."
The film and preshow event contain language and themes not suitable for all ages, or all audiences. Mature audiences are advised. Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. MSU embraces diversity and tolerance and has an alcohol-and-tobacco-free campus. MSU Campus
