The Last Dance?: Striptease in English pubs 2007-2020

By Terry Crawford

"The Last Dance?" describes striptease in pubs in London and South East England between 2007 and 2020.

Stripping was once a regular pub attraction, but by 2000 the number of venues was in a steady decline that was to continue in the face of opposition from local councils and feminists, the availability of Internet pornography and new legislation.

The author describes all the well-known strip pubs and includes many others that had regular stripper sessions a couple of times a week. There are comments from several of the most popular dancers of the era, and accounts of opposition from feminists and local people.

Also described is the "underground" scene of "private parties". Threaded through the text are allusions to changing attitudes to sex and female nudity.

Though there have been several books written by dancers about British lap-dancing clubs, none has been published about modern strip pubs from a customer's viewpoint.
