Disaster!
Book by Seth Rudetsky and Jack Plotnick

​

It’s 1979, and New York’s hottest A-listers are lining up for the opening night of a floating casino and discotheque. Joining them on board: a faded disco star, a sultry nightclub singer and her eleven-year-old twins, a disaster expert nobody will listen to, a feminist reporter, an older couple with a secret, two young guys on the prowl, a shady businessman, and a nun with a gambling problem.

​

But what starts as a night of boogie fever quickly turns to panic as the ship is struck by one catastrophe after another: earthquakes, tidal waves, towering infernos, and yes, killer rats. As night turns to day, everyone must fight to survive, and maybe even win back the love they lost along the way.

​

Packed with ’70s chart-toppers like “Knock on Wood,” “Hooked on a Feeling,” “Sky High,” “I Am Woman,” and “Hot Stuff,” Disaster! is a gleefully ridiculous homage to the era of bell-bottoms, platform shoes, and the hustle. Come for the larger-than-life characters and snappy one-liners, stay for the hits, and get ready to dance in your seat and laugh until it hurts.
