A raucous, pop-rock-musical about gender expectations and stereotypes..that takes it all off.

​

In this Americanized musical stage version adapted from the 1997 British film of the same name, six unemployed Buffalo steelworkers, low on both cash and prospects, decide to present a strip act at a local club after seeing their wives’ enthusiasm for a touring company of Chippendales. As they prepare for the show, working through their fears, self-consciousness, and anxieties, they overcome their inner demons and find strength in their camaraderie.

​

It's a raucous and touching piece of popular theatre that captures the mood of the 1980s, when a generation of men realized that their jobs-for-life in the steel industry were gone, and they were on the scrap heap.
