Master Class Passport: Studio 54 (1977-1981)

Disco. Fashion. Money. Art. Cocaine. Sex. All these words embody the 1970s club epicenter of the world that was STUDIO 54. Everyone from Michael Jackson, Andy Warhol, Halston, Diana Ross, Bianca Jagger, Truman Capote, Princess Grace of Monaco, and Grace Jones partied the night away in a drugged hazed abyss of music and mayhem. Never before had the world seen a club SO exclusive yet so bohemian. A place where dukes, designers, actors, and icons mixed and mingled with every day people. Imagine if twitter or facebook were around during this era. The scandal. The single MOST notorious nightclub in the world. Never before or since has there been a place where the sky was the limit and the champagne, cocaine and music never ended. With the rise AIDS, the end of disco, and the beginning of the Reagan years, STUDIO 54 lived the fast lane, in a short time. But the confetti in the cracks and the legends of the time STILL make STUDIO 54... MasterClassCertified.
