And here is the aforementioned character outline:

"Actors

The actors will act out the scenes of the movie as they happen.  Only the
major roles will be cast, with background characters usually being filled
in by AP members.  There’s no wrong way to play a part—you can try to
emulate every little movement the character does onscreen, or you can just
have fun with it, and maybe even play around a little with the lucky people
in the front row!  PLEASE NOTE that most every role will involve some sort
of... lack of dress

Brad Majors: Young, nerdy gentleman who finds himself with a flat tire
outside a strange castle.  Tries to maintain his dignity—and sanity—while
dealing with the denizens thereof.

Janet Weiss: Brad’s fiancée, a sweet simple girl who is very much at unease
at the castle, though she quickly has a change of heart….

Dr. Frank-N-Furter: Star of the show and the strange host of our two
heroes.  Scientist, transvestite and all-around degenerate, his motto is
“give yourself over to absolute pleasure” as he convinces Brad and Janet to
share in his bizarre lifestyle.

Rocky Horror:  Frank’s creation.  Designed to be the perfect male specimen,
Rocky quickly becomes confused and scared of his creator, who has certain
plans for him…

Riff Raff: Frank’s hunchbacked handyman.  Welcomes Brad and Janet into the
house, shows a certain hatred for Rocky and a strange relationship with his
sister Magenta.

Magenta: Riff’s sister and domestic housemaid for Frank.  Grows weary of
her master’s antics, and shares more than one bizarre secret with her
brother.

Columbia:  Frank’s biggest fan.  She continues to cling to him despite his
moving on to, erm, bigger things.  She also fosters a love for Eddie.

Eddie:  Frank’s first failed creation.  Appears for one scene to rock out,
then gets killed.  May be double-cast with Dr. Scott.

Dr. Scott: Brad’s wheelchair-bound mentor and former colleague of Frank.
 Tries to thwart Frank’s plans and help Brad and Janet escape, while
resisting the doctor’s influences himself."
