Disco Inferno as the name suggests is a fast moving production full of music for the 70's which everyone knows and gets the audience singing along.
Lee Powell played Jack Flash, the central character who sells his soul to the devil. Lee leads from the front with a very good performance. He was well supported by Sarah Corden as Jacks long suffering girlfriend Jane. Jacks best friend, Tom, was played by Kai McNamee who sang well and used the stage to the full.
Michelle Burgess played Lady Marmalade, the devils femme fatile, who had a great stage presence.
The main principals received good support from the remainder of the cast and the chorus. I really enjoyed the renditions of Crocodile Rock and the Village People Medley. Well staged.
The company used a simple set but this worked well with the production and the costumes stood out. Very colourful.
Really enjoyed lostening to a good and well balanced orchestra.
