Disaster! is a new musical straight from Broadway, featuring some of the most unforgettable songs of the '70s. "Knock on Wood," "Hooked on a Feeling," "Sky High," "I Am Woman" and "Hot Stuff" are just a few of the scintillating hits in this hilarious musical comedy with a book by three-time Emmy Award nominee and SiriusXM Broadway host, 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. Also attending is a faded disco star, a sexy nightclub singer with her eleven-year-old twins, a disaster expert, a feminist reporter, an older couple with a secret, a pair of young guys who are looking for ladies, an untrustworthy businessman and a nun with a gambling addiction. What begins as a night of boogie fever quickly changes to panic as the ship succumbs to multiple disasters, such as earthquakes, tidal waves and infernos. As the night turns into day, everyone struggles to survive and, quite possibly, repair the love that they've lost... or at least escape the killer rats.

Audiences and critics are wild for this hilarious homage to the era of bell-bottoms, platform shoes and the hustle. With larger-than-life characters, snappy dialogue and some of the most recognizable songs of the '70s, Disaster! will have your patrons dancing in their seats and rolling in the aisles."

This is a jukebox musical, but in the best possible way - with iconic 70's music as the punchline to a hilarious script (you may know Seth Rudetsky from the Broadway channel on Sirius XM!)
 


The Community Synagogue Theater Company is honored to have been selected as one of the first recipients of HEART's Gina Farasciano Community Theater Grant in 2021.

"Gina Farasciano was the best of The Community Synagogue Theater Company - her heart and soul poured into everything we did. From mastering dance steps in rehearsal, to shining on stage on opening night to organizing an epic cast party - she loved the theater and she loved the people and she loved the energy.  We will miss her terribly, but know that her legacy will live on through all of us." — Lori Zlotoff, Executive Producer of The Community Synagogue Theater Company
