Showgirls

Would it be impolite to describe this as the Grande Dame of the Cross? Showgirls has long been a Darlinghurst Road landmark with a huge stage, well-appointed private rooms and a well-tuned sound system (well, those places can get loud). They also have regular themed events and a reputation for very friendly staff. In the sense that they’re charming and pleasant, we emphasise, don’t get any ideas.
