Middlesbrough care home residents ‘go wild’ for Dreamboys stripper
A male stripper caused a stir at a Middlesbrough care home this week, when he replaced the residents’ usual “knit and natter” session with a striptease.
Max Hunter was a care home manager before he became a stripper and decided to offer the elderly residents a show.
“I spoke to the gang here and the ladies said a resounding ‘yes please’,” said Astune Rise care home’s manager Caroline Bowstead.
“I’ve never seen a reaction like it at any event we’ve done.”
A video of the event shows Mr Hunter gyrating with the home’s residents and stripping off his uniform down to his underwear.
The residents twirled pants and props as Mr Hunter danced in the living room of the care home, which was decked out in red shimmer curtains.
“He has a nice body, nice and athletic and everything he did was lovely,” said 87-year-old Anne Hodgson.
“Everybody was smiling and that’s beautiful.”
“I loved his backside,” added resident Betty Hughes.

The residents are already keen to bring Mr Hunter back, and have asked Ms Bowstead if he can join next week’s “knit and natter” session.
“I used to run entertainment at retirement villages so it’s an absolute privilege to be back in a care home again putting a smile on residents’ faces,” said Mr Hunter.
“The reaction was absolutely wild, we had a bit of underwear thrown and a lot of laughs,” said Alice Woods who manages the Dreamboys strip show Mr Hunter performs in.
