I haven’t heard of any outdoor showings with the full cast/audience participation anywhere near where we live, unfortunately.
If it's still as beloved as it was when I was a teen-ish type (and I have no reason to believe it isn't, it's a sticky movie), but maybe it's an option.
You can have the full in-theatre experience outside, it just takes the right outdoor cinema.
I am dragging on decades-old memories here, but if there are re-enactment groups, maybe you could pitch them on organising one at an outdoor space. Won't be midnight, but will be under the stars,
Anecdotally, I know a lot of people (from my admittedly small sample) who would leap at the chance to see an outdoor movie with actual other people, and they're the type of folks who are a bit iffy about movies in the pandemic-era.
I reckon it's possible.
Down here, in the before times, we had months-long summer, outdoor film festivals at universities, I reckon tacking a date on there, or even a midnight showing would be possible.
Or, get a projector, invite friends around, and do the best you can to replicate the experience. You'll be happy,the kids will be happy, and while it's not quite the experience you wanted, it's the best you can do while the virus is here.

Or get these (https://prescientx.com/products/breathe-reusable-mask-single) and cinema away! Depending on your level of risk.
The other other option is renting a cinema yourself and doing it that way, with RAT tests ... but that seems excessive. People will go for it though.
[Various offers are void in the US, and especially Tennessee, 'cause I reckon RHPS would be classed as drag]
