Join KPBS’ Beth Accomando under the neon glow of the historic Les Girls Theater for “Stripper Energy: Fighting Back from the Fringes,” a six-part video podcast.

Former dancer, award-winning Fringe artist, and current owner of Les Girls Theater, Kata Pierce-Morgan, provides unlimited access to a half century of archival material that uncovers a dark chapter of San Diego history from the 1970s and 80s. Prepare for sassy strippers, corrupt cops, and a fierce activism launched from the unlikely stage of a strip club. Episode one dropped on YouTube May 22, and is now available.
