Disaster! The Musical

Disaster! The Musical

July 10–27, 2025

Written by Seth Rudetsky and Jack Plotnick

It's 1979, and New York's hottest A-listers are lining up for the opening of a floating casino and discotheque. Their night of boogie fever, however, quickly changes to panic as the ship succumbs to multiple disasters in this hilarious homage to disaster movies in the era of bell-bottoms, platform shoes, and the hustle… featuring some of the most recognizable songs of the '70s! Disaster! will have you dancing in your seat and rolling in the aisles.
