A slinky black leotard, extravagant glitter and artfully ripped fishnets are a few of the finishing touches you’ll need before heading out on a – likely – cold and rainy night to attend the Annual Transylvania Convention.
Or, more likely, you’re on your way to partake in one of the most drag-wonderful Halloween traditions dating back to the late 1970’s: the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Although sitting around your television, watching Susan Sarandon become a “creature of the night” and reminiscing with friends about how Tim Curry wooed you into a newfound sexuality can certainly be quite the way to spend an evening, around Halloween, true Rocky Horror fans flock to local theaters to take part in the action – literally. Here’s where Rocky Horror Picture Show is showing this Halloween around Western New York.
