Don't Only Dream It, Be It! -Frank N Furter 1975
Gosh my very first date was with a girl named Peggy.
We went to see the Rocky Horror Picture Show in 1985 for the 10th year anniversary of the movie!
I love of all the songs, my friend Danny was Frank N Furter for a few years in St Louis Missouri every Friday and Saturday Night from 1986 to 1989, I was there in my underwear as Brad extra!
'On the day I went away (goodbye)
Was all I had to say (now I)
I want to come again and stay (oh my, my)
Smile, and that will mean I may
I want to come again and stay (oh my, my)
Smile, and that will mean I may
'Cause I've seen, oh, blue skies
Through the tears in my eyes
And I realise I'm going home
Through the tears in my eyes
And I realise I'm going home
(I'm going home)!
Thanks for all the Beautiful music, all the Laughs and the Scares from IT! Never to forget CLUE one of my favorite movies of all -XOXO jzebraa
#TimCurry2026 jzebraa
Legendary actor and singer Tim Curry died at age 80 on August 25, 2026, at his home in Los Angeles following years of health struggles after a major stroke in 2012. He remains a beloved cult icon, universally celebrated for his magnetic charisma, booming voice, and unparalleled ability to portray delightfully eccentric villains and antiheroes. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Career & Iconic Roles
Curry's prolific career spanned more than five decades across film, television, theatre, and voice acting: [1]
- Dr. Frank-N-Furter: He shot to worldwide stardom by originating the flamboyant, cross-dressing scientist in the stage musical The Rocky Horror Show and its legendary 1975 film adaptation, [The Rocky Horror Picture Show](0.6.6, 0.6.10).
- Pennywise the Clown: He terrified a generation as the original entity in the 1990 television miniseries adaptation of Stephen King's [It](0.6.10, 0.6.12).
- Wadsworth: He delivered a masterclass in manic comedic timing as the fast-talking butler in the 1985 cult classic [Clue](0.6.8, 0.6.13).
- Other Memorable Villains: His distinct flair elevated numerous roles, including Rooster Hannigan in Annie (1982), the Lord of Darkness in Legend (1985), the conniving hotel concierge in Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (1992), and Long John Silver in Muppet Treasure Island (1996). [1, 2]
Stage and Music Legacy
Before conquering Hollywood, Curry got his start in the original 1968 London production of Hair. Over his lifetime, he earned three Tony Award nominations and two Laurence Olivier Awards nods for standout theatrical performances, including Amadeus and Spamalot. He was also a talented musical artist, releasing four studio albums through A&M Records and touring with his own rock band. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Final Years
Following his debilitating 2012 stroke, Curry pivoted primarily to voiceover work and limited public appearances from a wheelchair. In late 2025, he joined his former co-stars for The Rocky Horror Picture Show 50th Anniversary Spectacular Tour in New York City, marking what would be his final public appearance. [1, 2, 3]

Rocky Horror
Fasten your garter belt and time warp again with The Rocky Horror Picture Show! When this cinematic sensation first sashayed onto the screen, moviegoers were treated to a gender-bending horror story/musical romantic comedy, and it remains one of the cinema’s most enduring cult classics. Based on the musical by Richard O’Brien (who also plays Riff Raff and who co-wrote the screenplay with Jim Sharman, who directed), the film follows a newly engaged young couple, Brad (Barry Bostwick) and Janet (Susan Sarandon), through the most unforgettable night of their lives. After their car gets a flat tire during a torrential rainstorm, Brad and Janet walk to a creepy castle, hoping to phone for help. But things take a turn for the outrageous when they meet the master of the castle – transvestite inventor Dr. Frank-N-Furter (Tim Curry, recreating his stage role). Not only is the “doctor” hosting an entourage of aliens, he has brought a spectacularly muscular man (Peter Hinwood) to life. As Brad and Janet engage in some unexpected debauchery of their own in Frank’s castle, they also witness shocking crimes! Also starring Meatloaf, Patricia Quinn, Little Nell, Jonathan Adams and Charles Gray, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is a hilarious, campy romp filled with song-and-dance numbers – and enough horror to thrill you, chill you and fulfill you from start to finish.
