About The Rocky Horror Show

Two Cent Lion & Colorado's Elusive Ingredient

Present: Richard O'Brien's The Rocky Horror Show

Directed by Tamarra Nelson

In this cult classic, sweethearts Brad and Janet, stuck with a flat tire during a storm, discover the eerie mansion of Dr. Frank-N-Furter. As their innocence is lost, Brad and Janet meet a houseful of wild characters, including a rocking biker and a creepy butler. Through elaborate dances and rock songs, Frank-N-Furter unveils his latest creation: a muscular man named “Rocky.”

About Colorado’s Elusive Ingredient

Colorado’s Elusive Ingredient (CEI) is the largest and longest-running shadow cast in Colorado.  We have been performing shows as CEI since 2000 with roots running back to the first shadow cast in Colorado.  This historic cast has performed all across Colorado with venues ranging from The Historic Theatre in Estes Park to the Ellie Caulkins Opera House in Denver.  We hold the record for most seats sold for any shadow cast ever for our Red Rocks performance in 2013.  CEI has been and continues to be a staple of the Colorado cult film community.
