After the Fest: Live Jazz & Burlesque!

[New Orleans Burlesque]

Bustout Burlesque performs Friday and Saturday BOTH WEEKENDS of Jazz Fest! If you want to see an authentic 1950s-style burlesque show, like the kind of shows that made Bourbon Street famous worldwide, visit bustoutburlesque.com for show information. What is it? It's a striptease variety show accompanied ENTIRELY by a live traditional New Orleans jazz band! The 9pm shows will be at LE CHAT NOIR, an intimate venue on St. Charles Avenue just outside the French Quarter. You can RESERVE A TABLE in advance, or just show up! Bustout Burlesque has received critical acclaim and has been running for 5 YEARS in New Orleans! Men and women, young and old, will enjoy what the Times-Picayune calls, “A genuine hit! One helluva good time.”

Nah. ;)

No, you should! Saw them back in 2007 and the show was amazing!

You don't need to send him alone, you will enjoy the show as well. It isn't stripping, it is burlesque (think Dita VonTeese and her giant champagne glass!). Sexy, yes. Obscene? Not at all!

Remember the Happy Days episode where the boys used fake IDs to get into the burlesque club? This is that type of show :)

I've been to a couple burlesque shows as it's picking up around here in Vancouver. There are even dance classes at many schools that are like, "Pussycat Doll Hip hop" (little more dance than burlesque but girly nonetheless). I actually love the shows. They are fun and entertaining and quite tasteful.

I might hit this up if the wind blows me in that direction at the appropriate time :)

As a child, I found my mother's tassles...
My father was quite a fan of burlesque which led my mother to become rather talented. That was an interesting thing to learn at age seven!

Well you didn't mention the trauma earlier ;) It will either help erase that memory or make it so that you run out of the club asking for some mind bleach ;)
