    Starring Sophie Lawrence and Big Brother's Jonny Regan, Boogie Nights is a monster 70's party that has audiences dancing in the aisles.

    Sophie Lawrence.

    Now it's back in town and this time it’s bigger, it’s bolder and it’s better than ever before. It is a roller coaster ride of birds, booze and boogie, all seen through the eyes of the loveable but unreliable Jack the Lad, Roddy and his long suffering girlfriend Debs.

    In a celebration of the undying spirit of the seventies, the show features all the favourite disco hits of the decade, which are used to highlight the colourful story of Roddy and his mates.

    Bursting with 70’s songs, Boogie Nights captures the heat, the madness, the heartache and the joy of being young and in love.

    Roddy is in love with Debs, and Debs is in love with Roddy. But Debs knows that her Roddy has more than a roving eye! Through all the tears and laughter, can they both find what they are truly searching for?

    Daily Mail

    Boogie Nights, written and directed by Jon Conway, was an instant hit when it made its West End debut, starring Shane Richie at the Savoy Theatre in ’98, and the highly-acclaimed touring version, which until recently starred Sam Kane, has created a huge army of fans.

    Some even followed the show around the country, outdoing each other with ever-wilder afros, ever-wider kipper ties, and flares that have to be seen to be believed!

    This glamorous glitterball of a show stars Sophie Lawrence, who is probably best known for her role as as Diane Butcher in EastEnders. She has been playing the role of Debs for over a year.

    She is joined by Jonny Regan, the genial former fireman who shot to fame in Big Brother 3, coming second to Kate Lawler.

    Sparkling like a giant glitter ball, the classic hits in the show include YMCA, Celebration, I Will Survive, Sugar Baby Love and Play That Funky Music. Songs that people of all ages can get on down and well - boogie - to.
