They meet Fridays at one of the hotels downtown. No sweat, the hotel clerk told us to just come get a drink at the bar and enjoy the show. My wife and I had a lot of fun! The show was fun and elegant. If you're able to, it's not a bad idea to pay the $25 for the ticket to reserve a table, but if they are all already reserved - just coming to the bar to enjoy the show is perfectly fine too (and easier in some ways since you can leave at your leisure). Great group in NOLA! Highly recommended if you like burlesque.

This group travels around to different bars and puts on different burlesque performance in the back room of dive bars. Well worth the $10. This one is not safe for kids. FYI They did different cosplays and interacted well with the audience. You can even by raffle tickets to win your chance to get dragged on to the stage! My buddy won and it was hilarious! All in good fun. FYI the show was kind of short, but I am sure with continued success they will start making it longer. Definitely check out this act!

It was pure nostalgia and truly felt like a Broadway-level production. There really isn't a bad seat in the house. The concession line was short, and entry moved quickly, which made the experience even better. I've seen several shows here, including The Lion King, The Color Purple, and a few comedy performances, and it's always a memorable night. Anytime I have tickets to a show at the Saenger, I know it's going to be a good night.

I came for my birthday with a group that is, frankly, not easy to impress. And somehow, this show became everyone's favorite night of the entire trip. From the moment it started, it was pure magic--and not the watered-down, Instagram version. The real thing. The kind you feel in your chest. The storytelling is powerful, joyful, a little feral (in the best way), and exactly what you didn't know you needed. And the cast? Unreal. The level of talent alone would be enough, but what really sets it apart is the chemistry. You can tell they genuinely love performing together, and that energy radiates out into the audience in a way that's rare. This isn't just a burlesque show--it's an experience. One that actually lives up to the hype (which almost never happens). They also took incredible care of us, which made the whole night feel even more special. If you're in New Orleans and even thinking about going--go. Loudly, dramatically, and preferably with jazz hands.

While this is not that . . . it's perfect for New Orleans and the south and has it's own flavor. I loved the show here! Madame Kennedy was the perfect emcee (and also put on a wicked black light bubble show). Some acts were sexy and seductive. Some acts were acrobatic and martial arts based, as Madame Kennedy said, "I'm sure someone is missing their anime character somewhere." There were hula hoops, feathers, and grinders! One act was a woman who put a grinder against a metal plate on her belt and sparks flew everywhere! I also saw my first (as far as I can remember) burlesque by a transgender man. It was so much fun! We did the reserved tickets, so we got a table right up front. There isn't a bad seat in the house, but I really prefer being in the center of the action. Doors open at 6:30 for a 7 PM show, but ours was running late (we didn't mind). They have a basic bar with decent prices. They also do dance classes, varying show themes, comedy routines, and more. So you'll always be able to see something different.

This was when the theater was inside of Attraction's Salon and the experience was like no other. I had quite a long hiatus, not due to anything in particular, but by the time I returned to Cutting Edge as an audience member, the theater was a whole new place with lovely theater seating and an elevated stage as well as very professional sound and lighting. I want to say my first show back was Beauty and the Beast but that's all it took. It wasn't long before I was a season passholder. I have seen many shows at Cutting Edge from big musicals to small straight place and also many original shows that paid tribute to some of my favorite musical artists of all time. One day I got brave and auditioned for Rock of Ages that began my time on stage at Cutting Edge Theater instead of in the audience. The people I've met throughout my experiences there have all been wonderful and being a part of Cutting Edge Center of the Arts has truly made me a happier person. I am proud to now be among the board of trustees and to support this theater in as many ways as possible. There is something unique about Cutting Edge Center of the Arts. It truly is the most intimate and innovative theater I've ever been to. I believe everyone should strongly support all of their local community theaters as well as other arts in their community because without art the world would be so dull.

My oldest daughter, who was 12 at the time, wanted to go to New York a year ago and one of her requests was a Broadway Play. I said ok sounds like a plan....before I looked up the prices. We decided upon Wicked at the Gershwin Theatre, again before I looked at the prices. When I saw it was 200.00 each, I screamed, cursed, yelled and I think cried but a promise is a promise. Low and behold this beer guzzling, sports loving, crotch scratching, manly man LOVED IT!! Worth every penny. Fast forward about a year or so and my girlfriend asked if I wanted to go to a play featuring her daughter as one of the stars. Of course, I was willing to go to support her but I had no idea I would enjoy it as much as I did again! Holy Crap if this continues, I'll be singing showtunes and talking about fashion!! Ok may be not that exteme. Ok let's get back on track. This is a small community theatre down in "Da Bayou" that caters to the people of the area. The play we saw was written by a local man that works at Nicholls State and performed by professional local actors. Yes they get paid to perform so it's top notch stuff. There are about 80-100 seats in the place all of which came from the old Saenger Theatre. Tickets are relatively inexpensive for what you get in terms of entertainment. Plus they have beer and wine to enhance your enjoyment. I look forward to the girlfriend "dragging" me back here again.
