Bruce Mason Centre: The Kingdom of Bling

A New Satirical Musical
THE KINGDOM OF BLING by The Rocky Horror Show creator Richard O’Brien

Written as a one-act radio play and performed live on stage starring O’Brien as The Narrator and ensemble cast, this cautionary tale has the wacky hallmarks of Rocky Horror while featuring giants, a menacing fox, trolls, and the king of the land – the obnoxious ‘The He’ (guess who?). The musical will also feature a stonking rock band, belting out original songs in a style that made Rocky Horror such a blast.

The Kingdom of Bling is set in “a time of confusion, when so many madly, strange beliefs collide. A time when kindness had been demonised, while crafty blindness wined and dined in a world it had divided”.

The Kingdom of Bling breaks the fourth wall, giving audiences the rare treat of playing along with one of the world’s most celebrated authors and actors whose production has been performed in 20 different languages and been seen by 30 million people globally. As a bonus track, The Kingdom of Bling tour will feature a second act – a Q&A with O’Brien talking about his life, The Rocky Horror Show, the theatre and inspiration for his latest project.

100% of all royalties of THE KINGDOM OF BLING will go to the Starship Children’s Hospital in perpetuity.
