Globo Debuting Disco-Themed Novela at NATPE

SÃO PAULO: Brazil’s Globo is heading to NATPE later this month with Boogie Oogie, a telenovela set during the disco era.

Set in the late ’70s, the love story follows two young women from opposing classes who compete for the same man. What the women don’t know, however, is that both were switched at birth. A soundtrack made up of disco songs from the decade accompanies the action.

The 90×1-hour title stars Ísis Valverde (Brazil Avenue), Bianca Bin (Precious Pearl) and Marco Pigossi (Gabriela) in the lead roles.
