Jeezy’s Juke Joint: A Black Burly-Q Revue

Saturday April 16th

8pm | $15-$25

Nashville, TN

Hailed as “the most important show you’ll see all year” by Quilt Magazine, Jeezy’s Juke Joint is a jumping, jiving, foot-stomping revue that pays homage to Black burlesque and variety with a fabulous line-up of award-winning, show-stopping entertainment. Ranging from classic striptease to drag to comedy and everything in between, this popular once a yearly extravaganza event is sure to leave you on the edge of your seat!

Hosted by Jeez Loueez and featuring established and up and coming performers from around the country, each production of Jeezy’s Juke Joint is finely curated into a diverse and rich line-up full of glamour, storytelling, and thought-provoking pieces. Affectionately called the “family reunion of burlesque”, the Juke Joint strives to not only showcase the power and diversity of Black entertainers, but to also bring the beautiful and subversive art of burlesque to audiences of color.

We’re excited to announce our newest additions to the March 14th cast…
