A Kansas City adult entertainment business is showing videos of naked dancers next to the stage in an apparent move to get around new regulations concerning what dancers can wear.
The Kansas City Star reports that Bazooka’s offers videos of its nude and seminude dancers next to the stage while a dancer performs live with her intimate areas covered, as the law requires.
The strategy may help the business sidestep a new state law requiring “sexually oriented businesses” to close at midnight.
If the dancers exposed private areas they would have broken the law, or forced the club to close at midnight. The club’s owner, Dick Snow, says they are legal because they appeared on screen.
Others say Bazooka’s may still be improperly open past midnight.
