The Rocky Horror Show starring Joanne Clifton, Ben Adams and Stephen Webb will tour to Sheffield
The world’s favourite rock ‘n’ roll musical will be performed at Sheffield Lyceum from February 18 to 23, 2019.
Strictly Come Dancing champion Joanne, who will play Janet, said: “I’ve always loved Rocky Horror. I learnt the Time Warp in my dance classes in Grimsby when I was four years old ... 30 years later and I’ll be jumping to the left on the actual Rocky Horror stage, I can’t quite believe it!

Joanne and I make quite a team and I’m sure that the whole cast will be raising the roof night after night as we perform for all the amazingly devoted Rocky fans. Bring on the stilettos!
