3 pairs of tickets for Oh! What A Night to be won

February 7, 2008

Thanks to the Sunderland Empire we have 3 pairs of tickets to be won for the opening night of Oh! What A Night on February 21st! So there is not much time to enter, closing date for entries is Feb 14th.

Remember, you also have time to enter our competitions for tickets to see The Elephant and Equus, deails are already listed on the site.   

Oh! What a Night is an unashamedly escapist, high-energy, feel good show, combining comedy, romance and stunningly choreographed versions of everybody’s favorite disco hits.

The setting is New York in the mid-1970’s. The action centres on the city’s hippest disco, the Inferno, domain of the funkiest, coolest DJ of them all, Brutus T. Firefly. (Kid Creole) It’s the only place to be, and to be seen. Everyone’s life revolves around Saturday night. This is the one night to put on your best threads, meet your friends, dance to the coolest music on the planet, and hopefully fall in love! Assuming of course that you can actually get into the Inferno.

To do that means surviving the rigid but totally arbitrary door policy of the Inferno greeter and head doorman the outrageous Mr. Stretch Mulligan. The club is facing a financial crisis. The club’s manager, Jack has run up some large gambling debts, and owes money to some very dubious characters. As luck would have it, a major Hollywood studio is casting a big budget disco movie. To get the right atmosphere, the movie company decide to use a club just like the Inferno and to use ‘real’ people, not actors.

They send their top casting director Roxie Rochelle to check out the club and to audition the dancers! However, financial ruin is not the only problem; there is also a plot to cheat Brutus T. Firefly out of the Inferno.

Which leaves various questions unanswered. Will the movie save the Inferno? Will Jack survive the gangsters? Who will pass the auditions and become a movie star?

Question : what is the name of the coolest DJ of them all?

To enter, email your answer to assistant@whatsonstage.com by Feb. 14th. The winner will be drawn at random from correct entries. Remember to join our free mailing list
