'Saturday Night Fever'

A 1977 fever dream comes to life on the Alhambra Theatre stage, complete with the disco moves that defined an era. Whether you’re nostalgic for a time of tight polyester pants and dagger collars or just keen on the Bee Gees’ close harmonies and catchy pop hits, the theatrical version delivers the full jukebox musical experience (albeit with near erasure of the film’s grittier themes). We meet the dinner theater production's leads and ask them about their moves. The show runs through Sept. 27.

Guests:

  • Rachel Kocher, actor playing Annette in Saturday Night Fever at Alhambra Theatre & Dining
  • Christopher Michael Milligan, actor playing Tony Manero
