Earthquakes, tidal waves, infernos and the unforgettable songs of the ‘70s take center stage in Broadway’s side-splitting homage to classic disaster films.
It’s 1979, and New York’s hottest A-listers are lining up for the opening of floating casino and discotheque, the Barracuda. Also attending are a faded disco star, a sexy nightclub singer with her 11-year-old twins, a disaster expert, a hard-nosed reporter, an older couple with a secret, a pair of young guys who are looking for ladies, an untrustworthy businessman, and a nun with a gambling addiction. What begins as a night of boogie fever quickly changes to panic as the ship succumbs to multiple disasters, such as earthquakes, tidal waves and infernos. As the night turns into day, everyone struggles to survive and, quite possibly, repair the love that they’ve lost… or at least escape the killer rats!
“Disaster!” features 34 of the most popular songs of the ‘70s, including “Knock on Wood,” “Hooked on a Feeling,” “Sky High,” “I Am Woman” and “Hot Stuff,” all thrown together in a book written by three-time Emmy Award nominee Seth Rudetsky and Jack Plotnick.
**PLEASE NOTE: The production has some adult themes and a run time of approximately two hours with an intermission. Those considering attendance should compare content to a PG-13 movie **
