The Down-N-Dirty Disco transports guests to the golden era "with a twist": with the roots of rock and roll tied into classic disco tunes. Guests can expect to hear classic tunes such as "The Boss", "Love Train", Boogie Wonderland" and more revamped in the signature Rock N' Roll Debauchery style, while they shake their groove thing with a cast of Stage, Film and Television vets.
The Down-N-Dirty Disco marks five years of the Rock N' Roll Debauchery Brand. In 2013, Executive Producer Angel Reed (Broadway's Rock of Ages) began the company in order to fund a benefit for her previous colleague and Rock of Ages cast member Michelle Mais who was then battling breast cancer. Due to an overwhelming success, the brand continued with additional performances throughout New York City, utilizing over 40 performers from different backgrounds and specialties. The brand continues with the upcoming anniversary celebration guaranteed to "rock the roof and dance floor".

Cocktails and food will be served throughout the evening with reserved seating, standing room and more!
