From humble origins as a London fringe theatre play to its meteoric rise as the biggest cult film of all time, this is the definitive story of the Rocky Horror Show. It started life in an 85-seat studio space at London’s Royal Court Theatre, before being adapted into a breakout cult movie that would become a midnight screening favourite, with a near-fanatical fanbase and a host of rituals, fanzines and spin-off events.
Linus O’Brien (son of Rocky Horror creator Richard O'Brien) makes his hugely entertaining directorial debut tracing Rocky Horror’s journey across the decades, highlighting why it has such staying power. Featuring interviews with Richard O’Brien, Tim Curry, and a host of artists, critics and fans, including Jack Black and RuPaul's Drag Race star Trixie Mattel, Strange Journey is a joyous testament to this 50-year-old classic.
