Most of this show can be shopped at any major mall. We do offer the breakaway security guard uniforms required for the finale, with instructions on how to wear and remove them onstage.The last layer of this costume is regarded as personal underwear (even though specified as bright red), and is not provided. We encourage use of the internet for sources for these items. The Broadway script completely Americanizes the story, and sets it in Buffalo, New York; the message is the same.
Plot Synopsis
Seeing how much their wives enjoy watching male strippers during their "Girls' Night Out," unemployed steelworkers in Buffalo, New York come up with a bold way to make some quick cash. In the process they find renewed self-esteem, the importance of friendship and the ability to have fun.
As the guys work through their fears, self-consciousness, feelings of worthlessness and anxieties (over everything from being overweight to child custody, bigotry to being gay), they come to discover that not only are they stronger as a group, but that the strength they find in each other gives them the individual courage to face their demons and overcome them.
