From one of the city's most celebrated chefs who manned a soup kitchen to the hardware store owner who kept looters at bay while providing vital supplies, director Hanson Hosein and producer Tom Powers have captured the spirit of resilience and innovation of New Orleans' independent business owners in their documentary film, Independent America: R...

Le Chat Noir, 715 St. Charles Avenue
Tickets $26 (Fri & Sat) and $21 (Sun), including a $5 bar credit
Visit CabaretLeChatNoir.com to order tickets now, or call 504 581 5812!
The action heats up this summer as Running With Scissors stumbles back to Le Chat Noir, bringing to life everyone’s favorite guilty pleasure: Jacqueline Susann’s VALLEY OF THE DOLLS! In 2005, the company performed the show as a one-night-only staged reading, and fans have been clamoring for us to do a full production ever since. Which only goes to prove: clamor and y’all shall receive!
One part homage, one part parody, Running With Scissors' adaptation of Susann’s camp classic follows three very different young women as they enter the tantalizing, treacherous world of show-biz: Anne Welles (Brian Peterson), a WASPy good girl in search of true love; Jennifer North (Dorian Rush), a knockout model with seriously bad luck...

The Maafa is just hours away. Our route is different and about 2 miles
long this year. We will begin in Congo Square and end in Algiers after
crossing the Mississippi River on the Canal Street Ferry. If you wish you can
follow the walk in your vehicles. We can drive about 25 vehicles onto the
ferry. This will help as we carpool back to the Eastbank.
Our observance will begin promptly at 6:30am and leave Congo Square at 7am
sharp!
Remember to dress in white. If you want to buy Maafa t-shirts or white
umbrellas you can purchase them at Ashe' or in Congo Square at the
beginning of
the Maafa. We will have water for everyone along the route.
This year's commemoration bridges the Eastbank and Westbank and brings New
Orleans together in unity like never before!
You are invited to bring a percussion instrument that you are able to
carry and play easily.
For more information call Ashe' @ (504)569-9070.

NEW MUSICAL MAKES NATIONAL DEBUT IN NEW ORLEANS
Broadway-bound White Noise to open at Le Petit Theatre July 9
Le Petit Theatre du Vieux Carre
616 Saint Peter Street
New Orleans, LA 70116
White Noise, a new musical bound for Broadway in October of this year, will make its national debut in New Orleans at Le Petit Theatre du Vieux Carré, beginning on July 9, 2009.

This new “cautionary musical” follows a pair of sisters who lead a pop band that mixes irresistible harmonies with coded rhetoric promoting messages of white power to produce chart-blazing hits. With a radio rock/hip-hop score and high-octane choreography, White Noise fuses today’s blog and headline stories into a narrative that challenges our conventional wisdom about freedom of speech, entertainment, and the dramatic effects of pop culture on the greater public. The m...

NEW MUSICAL MAKES NATIONAL DEBUT IN NEW ORLEANS
Broadway-bound White Noise to open at Le Petit Theatre July 9
Le Petit Theatre du Vieux Carre
616 Saint Peter Street
New Orleans, LA 70116
White Noise, a new musical bound for Broadway in October of this year, will make its national debut in New Orleans at Le Petit Theatre du Vieux Carré, beginning on July 9, 2009.

This new “cautionary musical” follows a pair of sisters who lead a pop band that mixes irresistible harmonies with coded rhetoric promoting messages of white power to produce chart-blazing hits. With a radio rock/hip-hop score and high-octane choreography, White Noise fuses today’s blog and headline stories into a narrative that challenges our conventional wisdom about freedom of speech, entertainment, and the dramatic effects of pop culture on the greater public. The m...
