"The Allways Lounge on St. Claude is known for its inclusive crowd, but even more renowned is its diverse live entertainment, which on any given night might include a cat circus, drag show, burlesque bingo, or naked karaoke. The drinks are cheap, the crowd is fun, and you can expect the unexpected — anything from a relaxing poetry reading to a roaring comedy show — that, after all, is the best part of New Orleans’s most avant-garde theater. On Saturday, June 24, take in a variety show of epic proportions, complete with drag performances, burlesque, and more." - Adriana Lopez, Clair Lorell
