In this Americanized musical stage production adapted from the popular 1997 British movie, a group of unemployed steelworkers decide to present a local strip act in order to raise some funds. They claim their show will be better than Chippendales since it will feature “the full monty,” or complete nudity. As they get ready for show time, the workers deal with self-consciousness and fear while finding strength in their camaraderie.
