It’s nice to know that no matter what the costume trend or latest Paranormal Activity flick vying for your Halloween dollars, there’s always a Rocky Horror Picture Show screening on Oct. 31. The Ridge Theatre screens the 1975 interactive musical at 11:59 p.m., info and tickets at festivalcinemas.com, while across town, Main Street bar The Cascade Room does the time warp at 9 p.m., info at thecascade.ca.
Far Side of the Moon, Robert LePage’s critically acclaimed one-man show about loss and estrangement, set against the backdrop of the U.S./Russian moon race, touches down at SFU Woodward’s Nov. 1 to 10. Yves Jacques plays the lead role for the Nov. 1 to 4 performances, while LePage takes over Nov. 6 to 10. Tickets at thecultch.com. More info at sfuwoodwards.ca.
Remember what guitars sound like? Vancouver-by-way-of-Kelowna rock studs Ladyhawk bring their sweet guitar riffage, soaring melodies and love of plaid shirts to the Biltmore Nov. 1 and 2, in support of their third studio album No Can Do. Mirror Lake, Metz and Shotgun Jimmie open. Tickets at Zulu, Red Cat, Neptoon or online at ticketweb.ca.
