Tim Curry

The 1975 cult classic Rocky Horror turns 50 this year. To mark the occasion, we listen back to a 2005 interview with Curry, who played the cross-dressing scientist Dr. Frank-N-Furter.

Tim Curry's first movie was the 1975 cult classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show. He turned heads as Dr. Frank-N-Furter, a transvestite mad scientist. This week, Curry opens on Broadway in Spamalot, the musical version of Monty Python and the Holy Grail. He plays King Arthur.

In Rocky Horror CURRY played flamboyant extraterrestrial scientist Frank N. Furter. The film, “The Rocky Horror Picture Show," based on the hit London stage musical, became a cult hit.
