What:
The Disco Amigos have been approached by a director who is producing the Saturday Night Fever musical at the Playmakers Theater on the Northshore. He is looking for 10-12 people to be extras and perform in the play - you will be club goers at the discotheque where Tony and Stephanie strut their stuff. You will be doing line dances (Night Fever), the Hustle (he will teach you), and some other basic choreography and chorus parts to "fill the stage."

Other “background” and “chorus” moves and vocals.
We will be on stage for four scenes during the play, and in the “wings” (i.e., off-stage) for chorus elements.
Additional Info:
Carpooling: We will be carpooling from the Lakeside Mall Parking Lot (by Red Lobster). You must be at the parking lot 1 hour before call time (5:30 pm for Thr, Fri & Sat; 11:30 am for Sun) to be a part of the carpool. If you are not part of the carpool, you must provide your own transportation to the playhouse and will be responsible for the Causeway Toll (which is now $5).
Causeway Toll: We will be reimbursing members who bring a carpool of people to the north shore and back, so please keep your receipts. We will reimburse at the end of July, so hold on to your receipts and submit them all at once.
