LEWISTON — A woman who danced for 18 years in “gentlemen’s clubs” will reveal the realities of stripping for a living at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 1, at Lifetree Café, 1919 Lisbon Road.

The program, “Trapped: A Stripper’s Journey Out of Hopelessness,” features a filmed interview with a woman who began working in the adult entertainment industry at age 18.

“My self-worth was tied to the amount of money I could bring home in a night or the amount of adoration I received from men,” the woman says. “It took its toll on me.”

During the program, participants will be given an opportunity to share times in their own lives that they’ve felt trapped and how they escaped.

Admission to the 60-minute event is free. Lifetree Café is a place where people gather for conversation about life and faith in a casual, comfortable setting.
