Luke Evans Breathes Through Broadway Boots | Entertainment and Celebrity News
Description
Luke Evans, starring as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in the Broadway revival of “The Rocky Horror Show,” is battling a corset so tight it steals his breath—so tight he’s hooked up to oxygen tanks backstage between scenes. Performing eight nights a week in humid New York, he’s pushing his limits, but surprisingly finds his towering patent leather boots comfy thanks to rehearsal on his toes. The costume designer used trash bag ribbons to craft Frank-N-Furter’s look, giving the show a DIY, everyday vibe. The revival, now a Tony-nominated hit, proves dazzling performances often come with backstage grit—and Evans’ legs? They’ve never looked better.
