4 September 2015 - 13 September 2015

Featuring an amazing collaboration of award winning creative talents and headlined by hugely talented cast and musicians, the Saturday Night Fever 2015 Asian Tour, its first in eleven years will be jive dancing into the Malaysian stage with a repertoire of Bee Gees’ hit classics such as “Stayin’ Alive”, “Night Fever”, “More Than A Woman”, “Tragedy”, “Disco Inferno”, “How Deep is Your Love”, and “You Should Be Dancing”.

Audiences will be captivated by the legendary disco choreography, the glittering costumes and retro hairstyles, in all its groovy glory—amid the dramatic backdrops of New York, the Manhattan skyline and the pulsating strobe lights of the infamous retro '70s disco era; the full set being brought all the way from Broadway to our doorsteps.

Based on the wildly popular 1970s film that defined the disco phenomenon and starring Oscar-nominee John Travolta, Saturday Night Fever depicts the uncompromisingly sordid 1970’s New York that not only made a dance revolution at that time, but also spoke straight to a generation of lost, struggling young adults.

The story centres on Tony Manero, an Italian-American young man with a dead-end job and an extraordinary ability to dance. Every Saturday night at a local discotheque, Tony dons his flares and struts his stuff; capturing all eyes through his stylish moves on the dance floor. He has only one ambition in life - to become the disco king. When he meets Stephanie, who also dreams of a world beyond Brooklyn, they decide to train together for a dance competition and their lives begin to change forever.

The feature film Saturday Night Fever was nominated for four Golden Globes: Best Motion Picture - Musical/Comedy, Best Motion Picture Actor - Musical/Comedy (John Travolta), Best Original Score, and Best Original Song for "How Deep is Your Love?".  The film was also nominated at the Writers Guild of America (WGA) Award for Best Drama Written Directly for the Screen and BAFTA award for Best Sound.

Its definitive soundtrack by the Bee Gees remains the best-selling motion picture soundtrack of all time and has won the original movie numerous Grammys - Best Pop Vocal Performance by a Group, Album of the Year, Best Arrangement for Voices, Best Pop Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group, and Producer of the Year. In 2004 The Bee Gees were given a Grammy Hall of Fame Award for the soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever. "Stayin' Alive" was ranked by the American Film Institute as the 9th Greatest Movie Song of All Time in the same year.

Premiered in the West End at the London Palladium in 1998 and Broadway at the Minskoff Theatre in 1999, the spectacular musical Saturday Night Fever has been seen by over 10 million people with over 2,800 shows in more than 20 countries across the globe, thrilling theatre and music buffs alike throughout the years. As one of the longest running musical, Saturday Night fever is still actively on world tour up to this very date ; bridging the young and old with a common interest of a fantastic musical performance.
