We’ve seen The Last Showgirl. But what about the next one?
The great dancer, choreographer and produce Anita Mann is celebrating the showgirl’s past, present and — she hopes — future. Unlike the poignant movie of an icon in decline, starring Pamela Anderson, Mann’s narrative carries on the tradition in Las Vegas.
“I had a dream about this just today, a fantasy about it,” said Mann, who created the revue under that title at Luxor some 25 years ago. “I want to create something big, a big ‘Fantasy,’ that shows the history and evolution of showgirls. I would love to tell the showgirls story, with video footage, just a gigantic show about this history.”
