It's 1979, and a crazy cornucopia of A-listers are lining up for a night of hilarity aboard a floating casino and discotheque!

What begins as a night of boogie fever changes to a gleeful panic as they endure wacked-out disasters, such as earthquakes, tidal waves and infernos – plus killer rats! Featuring hit songs of the '70s like “I Will Survive,” “Hawaii Five-O,” “Three Times a Lady,” “I Am Woman,” “When Will I Be Loved” and many more, Disaster! is Broadway’s side-splitting homage to classic disaster films.
