The Straz Center in Tampa will host three stars from The Rocky Horror Picture Show during a milestone screening on Oct. 22. Barry Bostwick, Nell Campbell, and Patricia Quinn will take the stage at Morsani Hall for this once-in-a-lifetime event.

Fans can watch the full movie while the Hell on Heels cast acts out scenes live. The mix of film and live performance creates an unforgettable spectacle that brings the cult classic to life.

Staff will hand out prop bags at the entrance: no outside items allowed. Want to stand out? Put on your wildest outfit and join the costume contest. The best-dressed might snag a prize.

Early birds with VIP passes start their night at 5:30 p.m. They'll sit up front, snap photos with the stars, and collect signatures. Each VIP guest takes home a special badge to mark the occasion.

This R-rated masterpiece follows two young lovers stranded at a mysterious mansion. Inside, they meet the eccentric Dr. Frank-n-Furter and his unusual household. What starts as a simple car breakdown turns into an outrageous night they'll never forget.

The reunion brings together three iconic performers: Bostwick as the straight-laced Brad Majors, Campbell as the tap-dancing Columbia, and Quinn as the mysterious Magenta. Such gatherings of original cast members rarely happen.

The show starts at 7:30 p.m. sharp at 1010 N. Macinnes Place, Tampa. Grab tickets, both standard and VIP, through the Straz Center's website before they sell out.
