Known as one of the most outrageous, camp and sexiest shows on a stage or screen, cult classic musical The Rocky Horror Show holds the title of longest continuous run of a contemporary musical anywhere in the world.
The creator Richard O'Brien was raised in New Zealand after emigrating from England, and later today the statue of him as Riff Raff from Rocky is being re-unveiled in Hamilton, the place where he first had the idea for the musical.
More than half a century after it was made into a movie, the London production of Rocky Horror is also touring Aotearoa in coming weeks.
