Saturday Night Fever the Musical, produced by Compagnia della Rancia under license from Broadway Licensing, is directed by Mauro Simone and is inspired by the 1977 Paramount/RSO film and the story of Nik Cohn who explored the new trends in nightlife and the disco scene, adapted for the stage by Robert Stigwood in collaboration with Bill Oakes (North American version written by Sean Cercone and David Abbinanti), with the engaging soundtrack by the Bee Gees and arrangements and orchestrations by David Abbinanti.
The direction by Mauro Simone, who takes inspiration from the immersive shots of the film and the unforgettable sequence shot with a very young John Travolta, restores freshness and topicality to the theater to the story of the Italian-American Tony Manero who marked a generation.
On stage, 21 performers bring to life the legendary hits of the Bee Gees, from Stayin’ Alive and Night Fever to You Should Be Dancing and How Deep Is Your Love, global successes of disco music but, at the same time, symbols of the culture of the Seventies, hymns of freedom, courage and the fight against marginalization. The text and lyrics of some songs have been translated by Franco Travaglio, while the songs that animate the scenes set in the style of 2001 Odyssey are performed in English.
