New York, NY July 12, 2004 -- To celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of The Rocky Horror Picture Show, a fan run convention has been scheduled for July 23 - 25, 2004 in the city that never sleeps. Titled "The Transylvanians Take Manhattan", the convention will take place at The Park Central Hotel (870 Seventh Avenue at 56th Street) and will feature a variety of events for Rocky Horror fans both moderate and fanatical.
"This is a weekend that Rocky Horror fans will definitely not want to miss," explained Larry Viezel, event promoter. "What's more, attendees will be directly helping kids with cancer since proceeds from the convention will be going to Have a Heart Children's Cancer Society of Levittown, NY."
Major Attractions will include:
* Guest appearances from stars of the film and the play.
* A viewing of behind the scenes footage from the movie.
* Auctions and raffles of priceless memorabilia.
* Performances by troupes from around the country
