Jon Dean is preparing to drop his new homoerotic mini-documentary, Backstage At M.E.N. Live Strip Show, giving viewers an inside look at the first strip show for gay men.

In his new sexy project, the podcaster and award-winning documentary maker meets the boys who make M.E.N. Live pure sex – exclusively for gay men in London’s Soho.

Ahead of its official release on Saturday (27 June) on YouTube, Dean has provided Attitude with exclusive images to get viewers edging for an inside look at what it takes to be a gay cabaret performer.

M.E.N. Live was officially created and debuted in 2025 and continues to run at the Underbelly Boulevard Soho into 2026.

Alexandre Roque, M.E.N. Performer and Founder of the show spoke about the meaning behind the show, establishing it’s place in the heart of London’s queer scene.

“We wanted to create a Cabaret show where gay men feel seen, safe, and celebrated. A place where we feel pride instead of guilt or shame. A place where we feel we belong. A place where we don’t feel like we’re the plus one,” said Roque in a news release.
