Pamela Anderson is a dramatic revelation with her unexpectedly nuanced performance as Shelley, a glamorous showgirl whose world is turned upside down when her Las Vegas stage show is abruptly cancelled after a 30-year run. Faced with the loss of both her career and identity, Shelley must navigate a difficult transition in her 50s, supported by her fiery best friend (Jamie Lee Curtis) and loyal co-workers. As she struggles to redefine her future, Shelley also seeks to repair the relationship with her estranged daughter (Billie Lourd).

A poignant film of resilience, rhinestones and feathers, The Last Showgirl is a wistful tribute to the enduring strength of women in the face of change – and a showcase for its long-overlooked star.
