30 by Ninety Theatre is doing the Time Warp again and ready to pay tribute to Tim Curry!
We are looking for performers 18 years and older to join our 2026 Rocky Horror Picture Show Shadow Cast for two Halloween weekend performances.

SHOW DATES

OCTOBER 30 || 12:00 AM (midnight)
OCTOBER 31 || 10:00 PM

SHOW SYNOPSIS || REHEARSAL & COSTUME INFORMATION

WHAT IS A SHADOW CAST?
During a Rocky Horror shadow cast, the film plays on the screen while our cast performs the movie live in front of it — lip syncing, acting, dancing, and bringing all of the wonderfully weird energy of Rocky Horror to life.

Because you’re performing along with the film rather than singing the score live, this is also a great opportunity to go for a role you might not ordinarily audition for. Have fun, take a chance, be bold, and express yourself! Rocky Horror is all about embracing the weird, theatrical, campy, glamorous, ridiculous, and wonderfully individual.

REHEARSAL WEEK
Our rehearsal process will be short, concentrated, and FUN. Rehearsals will begin Sunday evening, October 25, and continue each evening throughout the week leading up to our first performance.

Sunday will likely begin with a cast movie watch party, along with time to talk through the show, look at costumes, and start developing our characters. During the week, we’ll block and rehearse the show, and one evening will also include some quality cast bonding time while we assemble our audience prop bags! Because we only have one week together, availability during rehearsal week is very important. Please be honest about any conflicts when completing this form.

COSTUMES & CHARACTER
Cast members will be responsible for finding their own primary costume pieces. However, you are welcome to use available costume pieces we already have at the theater. You also have room to make the character your own. You do not have to create a frame-by-frame replica of the movie costume. We want the characters to be recognizable while still giving performers freedom to have fun with their look and express themselves.

AUDITION DETAILS

INTEREST FORM & VIDEO AUDITION DEADLINE: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 13 AT 11:59 PM
Fill out interest form here.
• Select any/all of roles you would be interested in playing.
• Upload a short video — approximately one minute — of yourself lip syncing and performing part of a song performed by the character you’re most interested in playing. [We aren’t looking for professional video quality or a polished audition production. We want to see your energy, commitment, character choices, and willingness to have fun with it! — Interested primarily in being a Transylvanian? Give us your best “Time Warp!”]
PLEASE NOTE: The following roles have already been cast:
– Rocky
– Columbia
** All interest forms and audition videos must be submitted by the deadline above in order to be considered for casting.

WANT TO MC?
We are also looking for an MC to get the audience warmed up and host our pre-show festivities, including the traditional Rocky Horror “Virgin Sacrifice,” costume contest, and other interactive activities we develop for the evening. Our MC should be comfortable engaging an audience, thinking on their feet, being playful, and keeping the energy moving. The MC may also perform another role in the shadow cast, so you do not have to choose between the two!

If you’re interested in MCing, there will be a section in the Interest Form where you can tell us about your experience with hosting, MCing, improv, public speaking, or otherwise being put on the spot — as well as any ideas you have for fun pre-show activities.

MOST IMPORTANTLY…
Rocky Horror is supposed to be FUN. We’re looking for people who are ready to commit to the week, support their fellow cast members, make bold choices, and embrace everything that makes this show strange, sexy, campy, hilarious, and iconic. Don’t worry about whether you’re the “perfect” person for a particular role. If you want to play it, tell us you want to play it and show us what you’ve got.

SHOW SNYOPSIS

Ten strangers are summoned to a remote island. All that the guests have in common is a wicked past they’re unwilling to reveal and a secret that will seal their fate… for each has been marked for murder. As the weather turns and the group is cut off from the mainland, the bloodbath begins; one by one, they are brutally murdered in accordance with the lines of a sinister nursery rhyme about “Ten Little Soldier Boys.”

AUDITION & REHEARSAL DETAILS

• Auditions will consist of cold readings from pre-selected sides.
• No one will be permitted to observe auditions. Your picture may also be taken as part of the audition process. This will help us facilitate casting, costume, and make-up requirements.

Register for your audition here.


A tentative rehearsal schedule will be provided at the audition.

Rehearsals begin December 7th [starting with Table Work and Blocking] and run though January 8th. There will be a few weekend rehearsals “sprinkled in” as well as factoring in the Christmas and New Year’s holidays. Rehearsals are generally Monday-Thursday, 6:30-9:00 (or 9:30 PM). The first read-thru will be Sunday, November 15th. Auditonees are expected to have all conflicts for the rehearsal period available, and ready to notate on the Audition form. ** If you are unable to make tech rehearsals, we will be unable to cast you in this production..
