The Plot…

Shelley Gardner has been a showgirl at the Las Vegas Le Razzle Dazzle Revue for thirty years.  At one time the Vegas shows were top line entertainment.  But times have changed.  They no longer have the prestige or class they once held.  Worse still, attendance has declined.

When Shelley learns that her show is closing, she’s not sure what’s next.  All she has known is the Le Razzle Dazzle Revue.  There’s not much demand for a 57 year old dancer.  Her last audition was three decades ago.  Dance styles have changed.  So have dancer expectations.

How will Shelley survive?

Thoughts (beware of spoilers)…

Jamie Lee Curtis appears as a former showgirl who drinks too much.

Dave Bautista is excellent.

The Last Showgirl (2024) rates 3 of 5 stars.
