Prior to the Covid pandemic, Whiskey & Rhinestones was a weekly burlesque mainstay in the heart of New Orleans. For 5 years, we entertained tourists, locals, and hosted some of the biggest burlesque stars in the industry! After a long hiatus, Whiskey & Rhinestones returns in it's new forever home - The Original Nite Cap! Nestled upstairs in the historic 7th Ward of New Orleans overlooking St. Bernard Ave -- burlesque dancers invoke the spirit of history and celebration of the city while you enjoy incredible cocktails and a smattering of delicious food options to enjoy during the show.

The Original Nite Cap operates under the direction of local burlesque legend, Bella Blue, and strives to create a guest experience that is unparalleled in both hospitality and quality entertainment. Please do not hesitate to let us know if you are celebrating a special event!
