FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Disaster!
'Disaster!' review: This '70s disco jukebox musical has heart and soul
8 / 10
As it turns out, 'Disaster!' is the season's happiest, most charming surprise. Co-created by Sirius radio host Seth Rudetsky (who also co-stars), Jack Plotnick (who also directed) and Drew Geraci, this show lampoons everyone and everything in sight, and yet still makes us to care about its lovable cast of off-the-wall characters. This is the best kind of campy comedy - the kind with a very big heart.
Disaster!: EW stage review
8 / 10
Disaster!, the new musical from Broadway personality Seth Rudetsky, has all the ingredients to live up to its name. It's a jukebox musical of assorted '70s hits (and a few deep tracks) that's also a broad, shticky parody of retro epics, all spread over two campy acts. There's so much that could go wrong, but the performances are so unapologetically silly and the production is so bright with flashing disco lights that ultimately you're blinded to its flaws: humor that can miss the mark and campiness that's sometimes a bit too overwrought...Disaster! is pure maximalism -- a big, old-fashioned musical with big numbers and big performances. A lot of the fun is in recognizing the '70s references, but even '80s babies like me will be swept up in the show's energy. B+
