B&W: I use HP5 and push it to 1600, use a good 50mm f/1.4 lens and close it down to f/2, and shoot everything at 1/60s or 1/30s if you're confident. That way you will have decently sharp nighttime photos, I think it's better than getting 1 stop more on f/1.4 and having a very soft photo, since you have to shoot in strong artificial light anyway.
Color: Use Kodak Vision3, if you can get it cheaply. This film has great exposure latiutude, you can shoot 500T at 1000 without pushing as I've wrote before on f/2, 1/60s and it will be fine.
Picrel was 250D shot at 400, and basically underexposed according to my camear lightmeter, ye it looks fine, it was after sunset getting very dark actually
