'The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas' documents in song and dance, a new Texas Legend, which now joins 'The Alamo' as an historical institution, immortalised in story, song, book, play and movie.

The demise of real-life Chicken Ranch inspired this musical stage play.

Thorpe (Dom DeLuise) in his efforts to expose the Chicken Ranch to public scandal, and thus close it down.
