A shadowcast is a live performance troupe that acts out the movie in front of the screen while it plays. We dress as the characters, lip sync the lines, and perform the choreography in real time — right in the theater!

Expect organized chaos, costumes, audience participation, and a whole lot of fun. People yell callbacks at the screen, throw props, and dance in the aisles. It's a judgment-free zone — come as you are or dress up!

Prop bags are bags of goodies used during the show — things like toast, noisemakers, and more. We sell them at the merch table before the show. Grab one before the show starts!

Anything goes! Come in costume, come dressed up, or just come as you are. Rocky Horror is all about self-expression, and everyone is welcome exactly as they are.

Absolutely. The Dayton Affair is committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and welcoming space for everyone — regardless of age, identity, or background. We have zero tolerance for harassment of any kind.

We're always looking for passionate performers! Reach out to us through the contact form below or find us on social media. No experience necessary — just enthusiasm!
