Ore Oduba is to don his fishnets once again as he stars in a special 50th Anniversary production of Rocky Horror Show in London.

Richard O’Brien’s iconic musical will play for a limited six week run at the Peacock Theatre, London from 3 May – 10 June 2023. Tickets are on sale now here

Ore Oduba said: “I can’t wait to reunite with my Rocky family, reprising my role as Brad Majors. There is just nothing quite like the Rocky Horror Show. I had the most incredible time touring the country last year, so to slip on the heels and zip up my corset again on the 50th anniversary of this iconic show will be so special.

“I can’t’ wait to Time Warp again with London audiences at the Peacock Theatre next year, it’s going to be epic!”
