  • Brad Majors: Janet’s dorky and overly optimistic fiance who is quirky but fiercely devoted. Vocal range: Bari-Tenor.
  • Riff Raff: The creepy butler who is the mastermind of the alien takeover plot. Requires a performer with excellent comedic and vocal chops. Vocal range: High Rock Tenor
  • Magenta: Riff Raff’s equally strange and seductive sister who brings an eerie, vampy energy to the stage. Vocal range: Mezzo-Soprano belt.
  • Columbia: An energetic, tap-dancing groupie who is fiercely loyal to Frank-N-Furter and serves as the emotional, high-strung counterpoint to the mad scientist. Vocal range: Mezzo-Soprano belt.
