Come on down and join the rest of the crowd dancing the night away with our LIVE jazz house band -- The Pink Canoodlers, gamble on our wheels of fortune and of course enjoy many more special guest performances throughout the speakeasy event.

Prohibition style cocktails will be served!

**Please note that this is an audience participatory/immersive event! You are a participant -It will be similar to taking part in a murder mystery party. Please come dressed in flapper era inspired clothing/costumes and even have a character name or alter ego if you like! Most of all... Be prepared to dive right into this participatory experience! You make it all happen along side of our performers. There has never been another event of this kind anywhere in the city and we are very excited to bring it to you!

DON'T MISS OUT ON THIS ONE OF A KIND EVENT!!!
       Neo/New Burlesque is a revival or updating of the traditional burlesque performance. A new generation, nostalgic for the spectacle and perceived glamour of the old times is determined to bring burlesque back! Today, New Burlesque has taken many forms, but all have the common trait of honoring one or more of burlesque's previous incarnations, with acts including striptease, expensive costumes, bawdy humor, cabaret and more. As with the earlier burlesque, neo-burlesque is more focused on the "tease" in "striptease" than the "strip."
