Broadway veteran Sherie Rene Scott will step into the role of Magenta in the Broadway revival of The Rocky Horror Show at Studio 54 beginning Friday, June 26. She takes over from Juliette Lewis, who will play her final performance on June 16.

Scott, who has been nominated for three Tony Awards (one for Dirty Rotten Scoundrels and two for her musical Everyday Rapture), was last seen on Broadway as Kristin Chenoweth’s standby in The Queen of Versailles.

She will join current cast members Rachel Dratch as “Narrator,” Andrew Durand as “Brad,” Luke Evans as “Frank-N-Furter,” Amber Gray as “Riff Raff,” Harvey Guillén as “Eddie / Dr. Scott,” Stephanie Hsu as “Janet,” Josh Rivera as “Rocky,” and Michaela Jaé Rodriguez as “Columbia.” The cast also includes Renée Albulario, Anania, Boy Radio, Caleb Quezon, Andres Quintero, Larkin Reilly, Paul Soileau, and John Yi.

Current understudy Anania will play the role of “Magenta” from June 17-25, 2026.

Richard O’Brien’s cult classic musical about a white-bread couple whose car breaks down in a storm, forcing them to seek refuge in a dark castle occupied by a horny mad scientist and his alien servants, The Rocky Horror Show exemplifies the unbridled sexuality of the 1970s. TheaterMania’s review describes this revival production from Roundabout Theatre Company and director Sam Pinkleton as “delightfully low-tech.” Tickets are on sale through November 29.
