This Week: 'Rocky Horror' At The Avon & Hitchcock-Themed Fundraiser At L'Escale

STAMFORD, CT — Two Halloween-themed events presented by The Avon Theatre this week are quite different in theme, but celebrate the magic of the movies.

A special showing of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" is Wednesday night. It begins at 9 p.m., so you have most of the day to shiver with antici...pation. Tickets are still available; they are $9 for Avon members and $14.50 for the general public.

"Rocky Horror," a cult classic, stars Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, Richard O'Brien, and Barry Bostwick. O'Brien wrote the musical that the movie is based on.

On Thursday, the theatre is hosting an Alfred Hitchcock-themed cocktail party and fundraising auction at L'Escale Restaurant.

The night features live music, food and drink, and a silent wine and spirits auction. There is also an online auction beginning Thursday. All proceeds support the Avon's operations and programming. And, guests will raise a glass to Avon Award Honorees Jenny and Chris Clark.

The event is from 6-8:30 p.m.

Tickets for the cocktail party are available here. L'Escale is located at the Delamar Greenwich Harbor, 500 Steamboat Road, Greenwich.
