I only saw part of the show the other night---but if your cable or satelilte system has HBO On Demand---you can watch the whole film at your leisure and if not---check the schedule for when and on which HBO channels the program is airing in the coming days.
The documentary is about Ron and Joy Holiday---they were known as the "Cat Dancers" and had incorporated their prior ballet dancing skills with putting on shows using large exotic cats and predated Zigfried and Roy doing that---
At one time--they were world famous putting on shows all over the world, with Vegas being their main place.
Later in life---Ron and Joy added Chuck Lizza to their act--and their sexual relationship--so they were pioneers in both entertainment and life---but the story ended tragically when one of their cats--a white tiger--(in seperate but closely timed incidents) killed both Chuck and Joy.
It is a very interesting story that you might be interested in seeing if you can.
