POLYESTER The Musical Honors November as National Disco Awareness Month

In recognition of November as National Disco Awareness Month, two guys in Sherman Oaks, California, have written an hilarious send-up of the Disco 70's - - POLYESTER The Musical, which has its World Premiere on Friday, November 6, 8:00 pm, at the Actors Forum Theatre in NoHo. The musical plays Fridays and Saturdays, 8:00 pm, and Sundays at 3:00 pm, November 6 through December 20, 2009.

POLYESTER The Musical was written by Phil Olson (DON'T HUG ME, A NICE FAMILY GATHERING), with music by Wayland Pickard (LIBERACE: The Man, The Music, and the Memories, eLove, a Musical.com/edy), lyrics by Olson and Pickard, and is directed by Wayland Pickard.

Doug Engalla is assistant director and Michele Bernath, choreographer.

POLYESTER The Musical is the story of The Synchronistics, an over-the-hill ABBA wannabe group, who re-unite to perform at a ‘save the public access' TV station telethon. It's "Mama Mia" meets "Spinal Tap."

It was 1979, and The Synchronistics were big, really big. Big enough to be on Johnny Carson. Their hit single, "Better Together" rose to #2 on the Billboard Charts. Then something terrible happened that drove the group apart. And now, twenty years later, they're back together to perform at the WKLN public access TV station telethon.

Will they overcome their differences, act professionally, and help save WKLN from going under? Probably not. But, you never know what to expect when this dysfunctional group gets
together - - one last time!

The cast includes Pamela Donnelly (ONE LIFE TO LIVE, ALL MY CHILDREN), Gwendolyn Druyor, Christopher Fairbanks, Robert Moon, and Jim Staahl (SECOND CITY, Hollywood's
COMEDY STORE PLAYERS).

This World Premiere Musical features 16 Original Songs including, "The Funk Train," and "Bump Your Booty Rump".

Actors Forum Theatre is located at 10655 Magnolia Blvd., North Hollywood, 91601,
in the NoHo Theatre and Arts District.
