With a blast of brassy jazz and a spin through the glitz of modern Las Vegas, Emmy Award-winning Storyline Entertainment and award-winning director Rama Rau's documentary League of Exotique Dancers sets the stage for a provocative and eye-opening "backstage tour" of the golden age of Burlesque through the colourful lives of unforgettable women who made it glitter.
Illuminated by well-known and rare, never-before-seen, archival material and accentuated by a soundtrack and original music which captures the mood of the era, League of Exotique Dancers peels off the layers of glitter to expose the sexism, racism and widespread stigma faced by Burlesque striptease performers and, indeed, the wider array of working women in that tumultuous era.
