The Rocky Horror Picture Show12A

Directed by Jim Sharman | UK/USA | 1975 | 1h 40m | Starring Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, Barry Bostwick, Richard O’Brien, Meatloaf

The Rocky Horror Picture Show is back for our annual Halloween extravaganza! Join Brad (Barry Bostwick) and Janet (Susan Sarandon) on an odyssey of self-awakening with a little help from Dr Frank-N-Furter (Tim Curry) and his motley crew of groupies and fantastically freaky Transylvanians. Dressing up and audience participation is very much encouraged, so get your fishnets out, leather gloves at the ready, and “Let’s do the time warp again!”

Reviews

‘One hundred minutes of pure queer celebration that manages to concoct a bizarre cocktail of sincerity and reckless abandon.’
Andy Tweddle, Little White Lies

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road.We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We only show a few adverts – less than most cinemas – and we only play a couple of trailers, so please don’t be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
