Revues and Male strippers get confused at time so here is a tidbit to remember.

The definition of a male strippers is a person removing their clothing so people who do male revues are essentially dancers. Because the money is available they do private parties acting as dancer as well so the two are the same. At the current time male revue is a more popular terminology and is used loosely to attract more visitors to what is being advertised.
