Quotes: « Shelly: I mean, Las Vegas used to treat us like movie stars. The iconic American showgirl. The Las Vegas showgirl. We were ambassadors for style and grace. You know, it was just… the costumes. I mean, it makes you feel like you're stepping out of the pages of Vogue magazine. I think that's why women like to come to the show. The glamour is undeniable. » « Mary-Anne: 'The glamour'. I think I can deny the glamour. » « Shelly: Well, maybe times have changed, but… » « Mary-Anne: [cutting off] Yes, Shell. They've changed. Times are brand-spanking different. » « Shelly: [from the trailer] Feeling seen, feeling beautiful, that is powerful. And I can't imagine my life without it. » « Shelly: I have no regrets. None. »

Plots: A seasoned showgirl must plan for her future when her show abruptly closes after a 30-year run. When the glittering Las Vegas revue she has headlined for decades announces it will soon close, glamorous showgirl Shelly sets out to plan her next act. Reconciling the decisions she’s made and the community she has built, Shelly decides to repair her complicated relationship with her daughter. After 38 years of sparkling rhinestones, glorious ostrich feathers and exciting eye-high kicks, Le Razzle Dazzle, the last exotic burlesque revue on the Las Vegas Strip, is set for the final curtain. After all, times have changed; no one knows what Parisian Lido culture means. For most of the girls, the show’s abrupt end marks a new beginning. Veteran headliner Shelly is a different story. Now, with dreaded uncertainty looming over her future, the ageing but undeniably charming performer must figure out what to do next to pay the rent. As the paradox of choice and urgency of change smear the dazzling facade of the iconic American Showgirl, vulnerable Shelly has one last chance to mend her tattered relationships or ruin them forever. But in a cold world quick to write her off, what opportunities remain for her?
