The Bee Gees are set for a Glee tribute.

TV show creator Ryan Murphy has revealed he is working with Barry Gibb on an April episode, which will revolve around the trio's Saturday Night Fever soundtrack.

Murphy tells TV Guide magazine, "We've never done disco on the show, but I'm interested in the genius of The Bee Gees."

And the director admits he's hoping John Travolta's friendship with Glee star Cory Monteith will prompt the Saturday Night Fever star to appear in the episode.

He adds, "Travolta and Cory Monteith became close friends at a party when Cory told him he'd seen Broken Arrow 20 times. Travolta sent him an autographed copy of the DVD.

"So maybe we'll have them dance in a dream sequence."
