Actor Luke Evans spent a day with Vogue to provide a behind-the-scenes look at his life and work in New York City [1].
The profile offers an intimate glimpse into the personal and professional routines of a performer leading a high-profile Broadway revival. Evans is currently starring as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in the 2026 production of The Rocky Horror Show [2].
During the day, Evans toured his apartment in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan [1]. He also walked through Little Island park with his partner, Fran, and their dog, Lala [1]. The actor used the time to reflect on his recent Met Gala appearance and his creative process [1].
Evans is currently a Tony-nominated actor for Best Leading Actor in a Musical for his performance in the show [1]. The production opened on Broadway in 2026 at the Roundabout Theatre [2]. In the profile, Evans provided a tour of the theater's backstage areas to show where the production is staged [1].
Beyond the theatrical demands, Evans discussed the specific costume choices and battles associated with the role of Frank-N-Furter. "I fought for a jockstrap," Evans said [3].
The collaboration with Vogue serves as a promotional effort for the revival, blending the actor's private domestic life with the public spectacle of Broadway. By showcasing his home and his relationship, the profile aims to humanize the performer behind one of the most flamboyant roles in musical theater history [1].
“"I fought for a jockstrap."”
The focus on Evans' personal life and backstage access highlights a modern promotional strategy for Broadway, where the 'lifestyle' of the star is marketed as heavily as the production itself. His Tony nomination further elevates the revival's prestige, positioning the show as a critical success in the 2026 season.
