SYNOPSIS

TONY – a seasoned NYC stripper –

expects to land a gig in a popular strip show, but instead finds himself cast in a refined Off-Broadway musical. Meanwhile, ANTHONY –

an innocent and enthusiastic musical theatre devotee from Montana – is shocked to discover he’s been booked for an all-male strip revue. As they navigate their wildly contrasting new worlds, Tony and Anthony must learn to adapt, embrace the unexpected, and discover hidden talents they never knew they possessed.

This musical comedy promises a night of laughter, memorable songs, and a powerful message about finding your own happy ending.
