If you’ve ever hoped to see Jason Donovan donning suspenders, fishnet tights and feathers, today really is your lucky day. The Neighbours star is set to reprise his role as mad scientist Frank-N-Furter for an upcoming UK-wide tour of the Rocky Horror Show.
Donovan has been playing the iconic part, which was made famous by Tim Curry in 1975, down under in Sydney and Melbourne. And it’s got particular sentimental value for the star. He told PA News Agency: ‘It’s also special for me because I met my wife on the show in 1998. She was working on the show.
‘I’m looking forward to bringing my interpretation of this production to the UK because that is where this show really feels like it’s in its home territory.’
