Get, ready to hit that floor and burn, baby, burn... in ‘Disco Inferno’
It’s the summer of 1976. Outside, the weather is as hot as the fashion and passion are on the dance floor and Jack is about to celebrate a 21st birthday he’ll never forget. Working late in a London Dance Club, ‘Disco Inferno’, Jack meets Lady Marmalade – the devil’s right hand lady. Dreaming of becoming successful, he makes a Faustian pact with her, trading his soul to fulfil his wildest fantasies. Sound like an ideal bargain? Think again. He becomes an instant and international success. However, success proves hollow. Jack has fame and fortune but is losing his girlfriend, Jane. If only he could turn back time and make one more trade, trading all he has for something far more important... love.
This highly acclaimed musical combines a hilarious script, fantastic characters and a score of hits from an unforgettable era of glitter, flares and platform shoes. ‘Disco Inferno’ is a high energy musical guaranteed to warm hearts, get feet tapping and audiences leaving the auditorium with a daft grin of pleasure and the fondest memories of a sensational era. ‘A night to remember’
