Last year, I saw The Rocky Horror Picture Show for the first time at The Playhouse and it was SO much fun! I think it is going to be an annual tradition for me now. I don’t want to spoil anything (in case you haven’t seen this cult classic in theatres) but, let me just say, it is an EXPERIENCE you don’t want to miss!
That’s it from me friends! Let me know what you’re doing for Halloween and if I missed anything that needs to be added to the list. Happy Halloween!
