Lupos Heartbreak Hotel
Day 2 of RKO Con will take place at Lupos Heartbreak Hotel. Lupos is not actually a hotel, but Providence's largest, loudest, and most conveniently located concert hall! The list of musicians and performers that have graced the stage at Lupos is endless, and we are proud to host our Friday festivities on this legendary stage. Entertainment, activities, vendors, and events will be happening from Noon til 3AM on two floors at Lupos. The venue is a short walk from the front door of The Omni Hotel.
Team Scavenger Hunt Game Show
The team scavenger hunt is a hilarious game show where teams will be competing to see who can round up some very unusual items and complete some very funny tasks . This could very well end up being the most entertaining and side splitting event of the entire weekend! Teams can sign up the day of at the RKO table in the main room of Lupos
Shock Treatment Live
Not a sequel, not a prequel, but an equal! Lupos in Providence is host to one of the largest stages to show Shock Treatment, with an All-Star Cast none the less! Following on from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", this musical is set several years later in Brad and Janet Majors' hometown - which has become a giant TV station; residents are either participants or viewers. They are married now, but their romance has fallen on the rocks. Ostensibly to fix their marriage, Brad is imprisoned on the program "Dentonvale" (the local mental hospital) while Janet is conscripted to become a new star. As Janet is entranced by the high life, she forgets Brad. Who is trying to woo her away?
Tight Crew's "Time Warp" Dance Party

Directly following the Shock Treatment All Star Shadowcast, we are going to clear out the chairs, transform the stage into a massive time warping DJ booth, and turn Lupos concert sound system up to 11! Guest DJs from Rocky casts all over the country, as well as local rave and club veterans will be throwing down some amazing tunes until 3AM! Rocky Cosplay and creative costumes/naughty outfits are strongly encouraged! Get ready for one hell of a party, the way only Tight Crew can bring you. Check out www.tightcrew.net information about this and many other events.
Pajama Party in RKO's Executive Suite
Following the Conclusion of the All-Star cast showing of Shock Treatment, The RKO Army would like to invite you up to our massive Executive Suite for a nighty night and jammy jam! The room will be open during the Time Warp dance party, for those looking for a more relaxing end to your Friday Night, and will remain open until people decide they need to crash and get some "sleep" for Saturday!
