Plot Synopsis (from Samuel French):That sweet transvestite and his motley crew did the Time Warp on Broadway in a 25th anniversary revival. Complete with sass from the audience, cascading toilet paper, and an array of other audience participation props, this deliberately kitschy rock ‘n’ roll sci-fi gothic musical is more fun than ever.
Characters:
USHERETTE/MAGENTA: Female, Age Flexible (Range: Mezzo Soprano Belt, Bb3-Eb5)One of Frank’s servants.
BRAD: Male, 26-35 (Range: Bari Tenor, Bb2-G4)Quirky, but very much in love with his fiancé, Janet. Overly optimistic at times.
JANET: Female, 26-35 (Range: Mezzo Soprano Belt, A3-Eb5)Good girl who is madly in love with Brad. Always seems to be frightened of something. Keeps losing more of her clothes throughout the story. Emotionally weak and caves into pressure easily.
NARRATOR: Male, Age Flexible (Range: Non-Singing Role)Follows our two hero’s through the story by narrating directly to the audience.
RIFF RAFF: Male, 25-40 (Range: High Rock Tenor, D3-B4)Creepy man resembling more of a zombie. Often makes harmless conversation seem awkward and foreboding. One of Frank’s servants.
COLUMBIA: Female, Age Flexible (Range: Mezzo Soprano Belt, E4-E5)One of Frank’s servants.
FRANK ‘N’ FURTER: Male Transvestite, 30-45 (Range: Baritone, D3-G4)Master of the castle. Welcomes Janet and Brad with open arms. Obsessed with creating a man to be part of his sexual entourage. Master of seduction.
ROCKY: Male 18-30 (Range: Tenor, A3-G4)Frank’s magnificent creation. Sexually appealing with prominent muscles.
EDDIE/DR. SCOTT: Male, 28-40 (Range: Baritone, E3-F#4)Eddie, delivery man, “went to pieces.” Misses the rock and role of life. Comes back to life only to die after his solo. Scott is Eddie’s Uncle.
