The Usherette acts somewhat as a narrator for the musical, The Rocky Horror Show. She is first seen in Act 1 as someone who works in a derelict theater. She then introduces the ‘film,’ that the audience is about to watch, through a song number. The Usherette also appears in the middle of the play.
The Usherette’s costume looks very much like a retro waitress’s uniform in a diner. She wears a pink waitress dress, pink heels, a white waitress hat, and holds a vendor’s tray.
