ABOUT SHOWGIRLS:
With lifelong dreams of becoming the World’s greatest topless dancer, tempestuous Nomi Malone (Elizabeth Berkley) arrives in Las Vegas with nothing but a suitcase and a few dollars to her name. Landing a job at a seedy strip bar, Nomi has her sights set on the Stardust Hotel where erotic icon Cristal (Gina Gershon) rules the roost. And she’ll stop at nothing to get there. A raucous mix of over acting, catfights and doggy chow, we promise you a night you will never forget!
ABOUT THE RIO CINEMA:
50 years ago the Rio became London’s wildest adult burlesque show palace, The Dalston Tatler Club was a notorious hangout for burnt out sixties swingers, with its uncensored XXX rated double bills of eurotrash porn and hardcore grindhouse striptease.
The ladies of the Tatler put on a full Vegas style show using every gimmick in the book including feathers, sequins, tassels and a twelve foot python.
Lasting until the Rio’s punk take-over/make-over in 1976, the Tatler era still stirs memories amongst long time Rio regulars. We now pay tribute to those pioneering ladies in recreating some of the glitzy showbiz extravaganza they bought to grimey 70’s Dalston.
