The Empire Strips Back 💃| Tauntaun |

The opening number portrayed a woman, dressed as Luke Skywalker, riding a large animatronic Tauntaun. She rode the machine for only a few moments before getting off and slowly taking off her costume.
The dancing was incredible, obviously, but what really took the cake was when she imitated the scene from the beginning of the fifth Star Wars movie, “The Empire Strikes Back,” wherein the characters climb into the Tauntaun’s stomach for warmth.
When the dancer went to get inside the animatronic Tauntaun, instead of climbing in, she took the fake guts out and began covering herself with them. There was something so provocative and comical about this gesture because, while it was portraying something so grotesque, there was something empowering about it.
Instead of getting inside and hiding from the audience as Luke Skywalker and Han Solo did in the original film, she kept herself out in the open, covering only the body parts which are perhaps too taboo to show to a room of people. It was almost as though she was letting the audience know that the exposure happens on her terms, and that the audience didn’t get to see her in unlimited quantities. It told us that she was in control, and that those viewing should enjoy the few moments in which she revealed herself to us while they lasted.

She was ok but the guy in the Tauntaun costume gave me an inspiration for this Halloween

This needs to be on a streaming service or DVD.

[@ryancramm5769]

Wow!! This is incredible!! I hope some day they’ll put it on a streaming service or something. Not everyone can get to a show. 😥😥🙏

[@johnboylong40]

Based on how the singer died this makes it even more prophetic

[@jurispurins8065]

Oh thank the Force! I was afraid that taun-taun was gonna strip for a minute!
It's cool but that's an odd choice of music (tho I love INXS).
