Packed with over twenty of KC and the Sunshine Band’s legendary hits including “That’s The Way (I Like It), “Give It Up” and “Please Don’t Go”, GET DOWN TONIGHT is the brand new feel-good West End musical inspired by the early years of singer, songwriter, producer and musician Harry Wayne Casey (KC).

Written by J. F. Lawton (Pretty Woman: The Musical) and developed with Harry Wayne Casey (KC) himself, GET DOWN TONIGHT: THE KC AND THE SUNSHINE BAND MUSICAL shines a spotlight on the true story of KC's early years in 1970s Miami, in a heart-thumping tribute to friendship, love and the music that brought a whole generation together.

So grab those boogie shoes, dust off your flares and get ready to groove as London welcomes GET DOWN TONIGHT: THE KC & THE SUNSHINE BAND MUSICAL for the very first time.

“There’s something infectious about dance music and the way it allows people to escape from the world and find themselves at the same time. I’m excited to share this show we've created with audiences in London, from the generations who were there with me in the 70s, to younger ages who just know me from the hits on the radio, in the movies or on TV shows. Everyone can connect to the music. We just wanted to bring that nostalgia to the stage and I wanted to show people a little bit more about who I am. For me, this is about telling the story of what helped shape my dreams into reality. It is a sample of life and emotions among four good friends in the early 70s. After all these years, the music has allowed me to tell that story. Enjoy the music, the magic, the musical!"
