Get Down Tonight: The KC and the Sunshine Band Musical

Get Down Tonight: The KC and the Sunshine Band Musical description

The Charing Cross Theatre whisks us back to the 1970s with Get Down Tonight: The KC and the Sunshine Band Musical, a splendid feel-good celebration of KC and the Sunshine Band’s beloved mix of soul, disco, R&B, funk and pop. The show is set in Miami, telling the true story of Harry Wayne Casey, KC himself, a talented musician and founder of the band. An inspiring exploration of friendship and the love of music, it is written by J.F. Lawton, who gave us Pretty Woman: The Musical and Under Siege. KC has been intimately involved from start to finish, bringing extra authenticity and intimacy to the show.

Containing twenty of the biggest hits from the band, this is a feast of magical nostalgia. These tunes still fill dance floors across the world today. The band sold more than 100 million records globally, scored five number ones in the USA's Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, four UK Top Tens and a Grammy Award for the Saturday Night Fever movie soundtrack. No wonder Get Down Tonight was a hit at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2024. Originally called Who Do Ya Love, this reworking is presented by ATG Productions, Gavin Kalin Productions, Casey, CTK Enterprises and LPO. So shake shake shake, grab your boogie shoes, and buy tickets for this energetic musical treat.
