DISCO INFERNO, tells the story of an ambitious and talented hopefully, Jack Green and his 'burning' desire to make it in the music business at any cost. Working late in a London nightclub, DISCO INFERNO, Jack meets Lady Marmalade - a femme fatale and right-hand lady to the Devil himself. Dreaming of becoming successful, Jack strikes a 'Faustian' pact with her, trading his soul to fulfil his wildest fantasies. Sound like an ideal bargain? Think again...Jack Soon becomes an international success...a sensation - even travelling the Atlantic to make an appearance on Dick Clarke - but success proves hollow. He has the fame and fortune he'd ways dreamed of but is losing something far more important - his devoted girlfriend, Jane... One disaster quickly follows another. If only he could turn back time... If only he could make one more trade, trading all he has now for something far more important... the love of his life.

A show for all the family and whether it's your first experience of the life and music of the 1970's or whether you were there when it all began, this musical is a guaranteed hit...a night to remember and one not to be missed.
