The Suffolk will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the cult classic “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” with a Halloween double feature on Saturday, October 25, at 8 p.m. and midnight.

Released in 1975, “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” has become a global phenomenon and one of the longest-running theatrical releases in film history. The Suffolk continues the tradition with two interactive screenings featuring a live shadow cast, costume contests with cash prizes, and optional prop bags to enhance the full audience-participation experience.

With sold-out screenings in previous years, this year’s celebration promises to be bigger than ever. Guests can enjoy food and drink specials available to order from their tables throughout the night, making The Suffolk the ultimate place to do the “Time Warp” again.

Tickets are $35 without a prop bag and $45 with a prop bag at thesuffolk.org. The Suffolk is at 118 East Main Street, Riverhead.
