The official KC and the Sunshine Band Musical, Get Down Tonight, is inspired by the early life of singer, songwriter, producer, and musician Harry Wayne Casey (KC) and set against the vibrant backdrop of 1970s Miami.
The cast for Get Down Tonight: The Official KC and The Sunshine Band Musical includes Ross Harmon (Shucked, Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre) portraying the real-life Harry Wayne Casey (KC) alongside Adam Taylor as Orly (Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club, Playhouse Theatre). Paige Fenlon as Dee (Pretty Woman, Piccadilly Theatre) and Annabelle Terry as Gina (Scissorhandz, Southwark Playhouse Elephant) return following the show’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe run. Ensemble members include Aaron Archer (Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, UK & Ireland Tour), Eve Drysdale (Fame the Musical, European Tour), Rachael Kendall Brown (Pretty Woman, UK & Ireland Tour) and Finley Oliver, making his professional debut.
The new musical, developed in collaboration with Harry Wayne Casey and featuring a book by J. F. Lawton (Pretty Woman: The Musical), is a feel-good show that celebrates the friendships, love, and music that defined a generation. Get Down Tonight is jam-packed with over 20 of the band's greatest hits, including “Give It Up”, “That’s The Way (I Like It)”, and “Get Down Tonight”.
