This is Not Your Average Slideshow of glossy Playboy photos. Documentary photography, research, and A.G. Norton's revealing interviews with Playboy Club employees / patrons; this comedy slideshow takes the audience down an entirely different kind of rabbit hole, subverting the narrative on service and sexuality.
“Mind blowing, eye-opening, beautiful, heart-felt. Just gorgeous! I’m so glad I got to see it!”
-Stacey Clare, author of The Ethical Stripper
