Reviewer: Chris Cox

 

After a hugely succesfull run at the Palladium in London, and two UK tours, Night Fever has finally touched down once again in the West End and is bringing a slice of Saturday Night to all those who attend.

This energetic show is full of so much energy and power it almost takes the roof off the Apollo Victoria. Its sizzling, it's hot, it guarentees you a great evening out...you can't leave without a smile plastered across your face! 

The show focuses on the life of Tony Manero, perfectly played by Stephane Anelli, with his strong voice and finely toned body, you easily forget John Travolta. Tony is the New Yorker with morals living in Brooklyn, working 9-5 and dancing in the Night Clubs on those infamous Saturday Nights. Along with Stephanie Mangano and Annette, Tony dances the night away whilst getting through life’s troubles and after seeing a glimpse of his way out, through the clubs of Manhattan. Does Manero have what it takes to make the transition by crossing the Brooklyn Bridge and tapping into the riches on offer? Zoe Ebsworth and Kym Marsh who play the roles of Stephanie and Annette respectively are faultless in every movement and sound. Not forgetting the sub-plot that is really brought to life in Act 2 by Bobby C (Alex Jessop) we get to get a taste of 70’s New York.  

There is very little wrong with Saturday Night Fever. From the first chords of the Overture you are suddenly transported into the 70’s and although there is some dodgy scenery, you can’t help but enjoy the show, enjoy the disco and enjoy the music. This is feel good theatre at its best. The acting may not be fantastic, and the once deep story is watered down, but this doesn't matter, as the singing and dancing make up for every slight problem!

The utterly brilliant choreography is brought to life by a stunningly amazing and large cast, with bucket loads of talent and energy dances its way through the disco that is this show. From the opening number you know you’re in for a treat, none of the cast ever go wrong with any movement, all flawlessly practiced and perfected.

Shaun Williamson takes the role of a very camp Monty the DJ, giving his all to the performance and offering some well timed laughs. The Discos are back and masterfully recreated, by the end of this show the audience were on their feet showing their appreciation and turning the Apollo Victoria into their own after-show disco.

 

This is one fever everyone should catch!
