Fan club rep Kev, makes it a dozen times as he has been working away harder than Santa's reindeer to bring us a list of Rocky Horror Actors in Panto and Christmas shows for the 2018/2019 season. If you spot one we haven't please feel free to email us via the Contact Us page and we'll add them to the list.

A special thank you to James for all the help he gave Kev with the list.

A message from Kev...............

It's Christmas time, so here's my annual list of Rocky actors who are round-and-about this Yuletide. As always, there's a mix of recent and classic casts - so hopefully you'll find a few of your favourites. The list is compiled on a best-endeavours basis, so do check with the box office before booking, to ensure that your favourite Rocky person is appearing on your particular date as Timewarp can't be held responsible for any last-minute changes or errors.

As you may have heard, earlier this year we sadly lost Peter Blake - the actor who played Frank the most times in the UK - from the King's Road and the Comedy Theatre in the 70s, to back out on the road across the UK in the 90s. Not only a familiar face on stage and screen, Peter was also one of the country's premier panto villains.

Each year when I compiled my list of ex-Rocky actors in panto, it was always great to see where Peter was earning his boos and hisses, from Abanazer to King Rat, to his celebrated Captain Hook. So, this year I would like to dedicate the panto list to a great character actor, and much-missed Frank. Although the boos in Pantoland will be a little quieter this year without him, the light over at the Frankenstein place shines brightly in his honour.

Peter Blake (1948-2018)
