Welcome to Up All Night: New Orleans!
Is it actually getting chilly now, or is it just us? We just pulled out a hoodie, so we’re declaring summer officially over.
Warm up to this week’s host of online events, as well as some safe, outdoor happenings. There’s Bella Blue at the Allways Lounge’s adorable Peep Show and the most heartwarming career pivot of all, Big Freedia hosting a cookout extravaganza at the Botanical Gardens! You can find these our other highlights of the week right here.
It continues to be tough for our performer community, and at UAN NOLA we’re trying to help by licensing photos sets and videos while folks are stuck at home. We can only do that via subscriptions, so if you’d consider helping out, we’d so appreciate it and all money goes to your local burlesque, drag and cabaret community! This is the last chance to subscribe and go into our amazing prize draw (offer ends midnight on Saturday)! $5/month subs can win $100+ worth of sexy prizes including prints and a super collectible, pristine Holly Golightly Funko action figure, and $45 and $75/year subs can win over $400 worth of lavish photo books, prints and much more. Become a member today and help support your favorite NOLA performing artists!
This week, members get to experience the cinematic wonder of a beguiling and very New Orleans short movie by John Lavin featuring the wonderful Michael Martin as Madame D!
Also, everyone is free to check out our new section that we’re simply calling ‘MORE’ - we’ll be linking to whatever sexy, funny or weird links that we come across every couple of days, so check back any time!
Speaking of, this week our heads were turned by the following tidbits (which are maybe not safe for work, unless you work somewhere super cool):
We love these sexy artworks, being sold for super worthy causes!
This Zelia Rose act from the Burlesque Hall of Fame is still one of our favorites!
And finally, a Lil Nas X holiday number? Er, yes please!
Until next week, when we bring you an interview and photos from local burlesque legend Bella Blue and all the latest trouble to get into! Thanks again for your support, and much love!
