The first half of this program investigates the club scene and the types of music and dance associated with it. Various unidentified disc jockeys discuss house music and the development of hip hop and voguing while dancers demonstrate their techniques. In addition, a variety of drag queens participate in a voguing ball, a competition in which the men present exaggerated versions of fashion models. In the program's second half, members of The Doug Elkins Dance Company dance along the streets of New York City, seemingly oblivious to the traffic and pedestrians around them.
