Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Great for anyone who likes a story with a soundtrack worth keeping and fans of a well-timed joke. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top.
The mood
Light and funny, eye-opening.
The pace
Moves through the story clearly, at 1 hr 2 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1950: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.

This is an entire burlesque show, complete with a live band. Five strippers strut their stuff in between bawdy songs and sexy jokes delivered by burlesque singers and comedians.
