Audiences will be captivated by the legendary disco choreography, the glittering costumes and retro hairstyles, in all its groovy glory—amid the dramatic backdrops of New York, the Manhattan skyline and the pulsating strobe lights of the infamous retro ’70s disco era; the full set being brought all the way from Broadway to our doorsteps.

Based on the wildly popular 1970s film that defined the disco phenomenon and starring Oscar-nominee John Travolta, Saturday Night Fever depicts the uncompromisingly sordid 1970’s New York that not only made a dance revolution at that time, but also spoke straight to a generation of lost, struggling young adults.
