Grab your disco shoes and life jackets! It’s 1979 and New York’s hottest A-listers are lining up for the opening of a floating casino and discotheque. What begins as a night of boogie fever quickly changes to panic as the ship succumbs to multiple disasters. "Knock on Wood," "Hooked on a Feeling," "Sky High," "I Am Woman," and "Hot Stuff" are just a few of the scintillating hits that will drive you wild in this side-splitting homage to classic disaster movies of the 1970s – The Poseidon Adventure, The Towering Inferno, Earthquake – packed with outrageous characters, calamitous situations, and unforgettable hits from that iconic era.
