La Vie en Rouge Burlesque Show!

The Duluth Dolls Burlesque and Cabaret Troupe are back in the underground with two special La Vie en Rouge burlesque shows inspired by Belle Époque! The first show kicks off at 8pm and the second at 10:30pm. Enjoy an amazing selection of whiskey, wine, beer, and cocktails as always.🍷🍸🥂🥃 Must be 21+ to enter. Belle Époque inspired attire is not required but encouraged! Who doesn't want to dress up while The Dolls get down? From bat-wing collars to leg-o'-mutton sleeves, the fashions of the Belle Époque and Fin de Siecle (end of the 19th century) were elegant, flamboyant and delightful.

Doors will be open at 5pm for the public to enjoy our cocktail lounge as usual. Around 7:30pm, we will begin to get ready for the show and the bar will only be available to those who purchased tickets to the 8pm show.

8pm Show: The first show will be from 8pm-9:30pm. Each show will be around an hour and a half long. Tickets are sold separately for each show. Pre-sale tickets will be available online at Eventbrite on October 1st and if there is still availability the day-of, tickets will be available at the door for $25/person (cash only). There will be no assigned seats. Guests coming for the 8pm show should arrive before 7:45pm. You will not be able to stay past 10pm once we start setting up for the next show at 10:30pm unless you purchased tickets to both shows. All ticket sales are final and non-refundable. Must be 21+ to enter.

10:30pm Show: The second show will be from 10:30pm-midnight. Each show will be around an hour and a half long. Tickets are sold separately for each show.

The Duluth Dolls:

The Duluth Dolls are a cabaret and burlesque team on the surface, incorporating different genres of dance from hip-hop to classical. When it comes to tassel-twirling, pastie-pounding, merkin-melting, glittery good times, there's no substitute for the Duluth Dolls Burlesque and Cabaret Troupe. The performers engage in everything from jazz-dance group numbers to classic strip tease peppered with bawdy comedy. But the Dolls have an underlying purpose of promoting confidence and body positivity. Since 2012, The Dolls have been a collection of women and men who present theatrical performances and workshops for the community year-round. From funny to sultry, each burlesque performance changes based on how the dancers are feeling during the numbers.

The Rathskeller:

The Rathskeller, ranked one of Minnesota's top whiskey bars, occupies a fabled place in Duluth's history. Located beneath the city street in the basement of Duluth's original 1889 City Hall, it was once a holding cell for the municipal court one floor above and it also served as a coal furnace room during the building's time as the center of city government from 1889-1926. Rumors abound that the space was once used as a speakeasy during prohibition and patrons have reported ghostly sightings inside the bar.
