A popular musical will feature at a popular south London venue for the first time in five years.

The Rocky Horror Show will be storming Fairfield Halls in September, with comedian Nathan Caton playing The Narrator.

This performance marks a milestone, as it is the first full-scale musical to be presented at the south London venue in five years.

Mr Caton, known for his appearances on Mock the Week, Live at the Apollo, and BBC Radio 4's Can’t Tell Nathan Caton Nothin’, will bring his humour to the role.

Mr Caton said: "Rocky Horror hasn’t been to Croydon for around ten years, and to be part of its return – and in the first big musical at Fairfield Halls in five years – it’s really special.

"I can’t wait to get on that stage."

Directed by Christopher Luscombe, the production features hits including Sweet Transvestite, Dammit Janet, and The Time Warp.

Tickets for this show can be purchased at fairfield.co.uk

Sean Coogan, general manager of Fairfield Halls, said: "It’s fantastic to welcome such an iconic and much-loved musical back to Fairfield Halls.

"We haven’t staged a full-scale musical here in nearly five years, so this marks a real turning point.

"Rocky Horror is the perfect production to reignite the excitement and energy that musicals bring to our stage."

The Rocky Horror Show will run at Fairfield Halls from Tuesday, September 2 to Saturday, September 6, 2025.
