Hollywood Avondale | Auckland, AU
In the anticipation of Gia Coppola's THE LAST SHOW GIRL starring Pamela Anderson --- we invite you to relive the notorious, camp fiasco, trash masterpiece that is SHOWGIRLS.Unbound by musty notions of “good taste,” Showgirls goes further than any other film of the 1990s in its orgiastic depiction of consumerism, crass spectacle, and the dark side of the American Dream.
Elizabeth Berkley (in a tour-de-force of hysterical excess) stars as Nomi, a tough-as-nails drifter with a go-it-alone attitude and a murky past, who arrives in Las Vegas and sets about trampling on everyone around her—including Gina Gershon’s evil-seductive nightclub diva—as she fights her way up from stripper in a sleazy club to star showgirl.
With its deliciously overripe dialogue and nigh-unhinged performances, Showgirls is both a delirious star-is-born satire and a terrifying vision of capitalism’s corruption of the soul.
COME EARLY! Doors 6:30pm, pre-show 7pm
