Plot Synopsis:
Shane O'Shea was a 19-year-old guy living with his dad and two siblings in a small, boring town in New Jersey...until he crossed the river into New York City and entered a nightclub that was nothing less than the center of the universe - Studio 54. Shane's fast rise from busboy to the "glamorous" job of a shirtless waiter--puts Shane directly in competition with his ambitious buddy, Greg, a handsome busboy who's unwilling to "do what it takes" to advance his career. Shane also befriends Greg's Latin wife, Anita, a coat check girl, also aspiring to be a singing disco diva. The trio work under the erratic tutelage of their excessive yet nerdy club impressario--Steve Rubell. All four of their lives collide during this summer of 1979 when the club went from its height to its decline following IRS investigations.
