Beth B takes us into the 21st century underground and reveals a secret world where cutting-edge performers are taking hold of a taboo art form, Burlesque, and driving it to extremes that most people have never seen. It's satire. It's parody. It's a populist blend of art and entertainment that gives new meaning to the word "transgression." Above all, it's a lot of fun, and it will blow your mind.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Julie Atlas Muz later became the first woman to win Miss Exotic World performing as a 'disgusting' character rather than glamorous—this doc captures that exact pivot point.
