The Pole Shebang

One Person. One Pole. One Hour. Take a behind the scenes detour on this journey of a tomboy pole dancer, as she is unexpectedly called up to the biggest stage in the country - a stage full of the most iconic, glamorous, and glittering pole dancers in the land!

'The Pole Shebang' is a coming of middle age story by a neurodivergent gender rebellious Asian-Canadian/Australian navigating the glitzy shadows of the pole dance world, where she's always just a little bit late and a little bit left of centre stage.
