Featured Roles

* Jerry Garcia Look-Alike – Male, 50s–60s. Heavyset, long/grey hair, beard. Overly talkative about the 60s/70s.
* Carson Daly (Host) – Male, 20s–30s. High-energy MTV host, cheesy, interacts with the crowd.
* Britney Spears Impersonator – Female, 20s. Blonde popstar type, confident, Pepsi-era Britney vibes. (We can provide wig)
*Two Stillt Walkers - wearing 70’s throw-back giant outfits, talking shit about other bands’ music, and being Rockstars, and walking around on stilts* intimidating attendees. British accent plus but not required! Can discuss your personal rate and breaks
*ULTRA SKA FAN & ULTRA SWING FAN - White man, 20s-30s, maybe a little heavy, wearing lots of bright colors and checker prints, big music nerd, overly enthusiastic about recent shows he saw, talks incessantly to attendees, so they want to escape.
White man, 20s-40s, tall and thin, dressed in a zoot suit, slicked back hair with a fedora, occasionally does tricks with his hat, showing off clothes and dance moves and flirting with attendees in cheesy 1940’s lingo.
*NU-METAL CIRCUS EMCEE- Male, with lots of make-up or even a mask, so the actor's physicality, age, race, build, doesn’t matter. They will roam around aggressively, but in a fun-loving way, not angry, encouraging people to play the games, and ranting about how everything is fucked.
