IF YOU GO:What: ‘Rocky Horror Picture Show Live!’Where: Schine UndergroundWhen: Sunday, Oct. 28 at 10 p.m.How much: $3 for SU students, faculty staff, $5 for community members

During Halloween weekend, Syracuse will be hosting a beloved event that always seems to go hand and hand with All Hallows’ Eve.

What’s going down? Are you filled with antici…

…pation?

You should be.

‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show Live!’ will take place at the Schine Underground Sunday night. Students from the Syracuse drama and musical theater department will adapt the renowned cult classic movie into a concert-style performance. Tickets will be sold at the Schine Box Office. SU students, faculty and staff can pick up a ticket for $3, while community members can go for $5.

As usual, guests are encouraged to dress up as their favorite characters, whether it’s Susan Sarandon’s Janet or Tim Curry’s legendary transvestite anti-hero, Dr. Frank-N-Furter or anybody else from the colorful cast of characters, including Rocky Horror himself.

Audience participation is also encouraged, but put down your rolls of Scott toilet paper. Throwing props is not allowed.

This performance also strays away from another Rocky Horror tradition. Instead of the typical midnight showing, the performance will kick off at 10 p.m.

But – in the end – nobody should mind what numbers are showing on the clock when everybody is grooving to ‘The Time Warp’ (again).
