Jonathon Adams
Narrator in the original 'Rocky Horror Show'
22 June 2005
As a boy in Northampton Jonathan Adams happened to see the 1920 film The Cabinet of Dr Caligari and he decided there and then he wanted to be an actor or an artist. In the event he became both. Art and acting struggled for supremacy for much of his early life but eventually complemented one another - and he was never a bored "rester". As an actor he is best remembered for creating the part of the Narrator in The Rocky Horror Show. As an artist, his last exhibition, "Jonathan Adams in Wonderland", opened in London at the Riverside Studios, Hammersmith, in April.
