On Saturday, Oct. 18, the Alliance for the Arts will celebrate its own 50th anniversary as well as "The Rocky Horror Picture Show's" 50th with a science fiction double feature.
From 5 to 7 p.m., attendees will be ushered through a haunted maze. “Curtain Call Carnage” will provide a chilling, gripping and gruesome theatrical storyline.
Then as dusk gives way to night, those who survive the maze will yell at the screen, dance the "Time Warp" and throw props in sync with "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Leading the mayhem will be a special guest host, ensuring outrageous entertainment and infectious energy all night long.
Dress to impress in your best "Rocky Horror" attire.
