While Tim Curry built an extraordinary career across stage and screen, from ‘Clue’ to Broadway, his turn as Dr. Frank N Furter remains for many one of his most iconic roles.

Local shadow cast Spaced Out Sensations performs live alongside the film on the last Friday of every month, but tonight’s show is uniquely special, bringing the community together to honor the late star who gave generations of fans a home on the silver screen.
Reporter Jessica Heisey interviewed Liz Kameen, who plays Dr. Frank N Furter in the cast.
Friday night’s show kicks off at 11:30 p.m. at ArtsQuest. Cast members say whether it’s your first or 15th time doing the time warp, everyone is welcome to come out and celebrate the late legend, Tim Curry.
