Entering the Cabaret Room takes guests back to the elegant nightclubs of the late 1940's. Soft lighting, table seating around cabaret tables draped with tablecloths and candle glow create an intimate atmosphere for drinking and entertainment. Holding only 125, the room has been touted as one of the most elegant and intimate spaces in the city.
The Cabaret Room was designed for live entertainment. The lighting and acoustics are excellent. Four rows of seating wraps the stage, creating a unique and very special connection between the performer and the audience. It is this connection more than anything else that differentiates Cabaret from other forms of live entertainment and makes it such a popular form of theatre.
Some of the best shows available in New Orleans are presented in the Cabaret Room five to seven nights a week, 50 weeks a year. Some shows are one night only, but most run on weekends for four to six weeks. A typical schedule is Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 8pm and Sundays at 2pm or 6pm. For more information on what’s on the boards, check our calendar. For more information on individual shows or performers, go to the Home Page and click on the show that interests you. Each show page has information about the show and the cast.
Advance reservations are strongly recommended and can be made for any show on the current
calendar sending a quick note to tickets@cabaretlechatnoir.com, or by calling 504-581-5812, or toll free 1-866-597-5812. All seating is table seating and is assigned on a ‘first call, best seats’ basis.
We accept cash, Visa, MasterCard and American Express cards. We accept traveler’s checks, but not personal checks. Ticket prices generally range from $15 to $45 dollars and usually the price of a show ticket includes credit toward bar purchases. We recommend reservations be made in advance by calling 504-581-5812. We will ask for a credit card number when you make the reservation; this is considered a guarantee toward a reserved table to see the requested show. Your card will be charged on the day of the show, unless you cancel before that. Show tickets are issued to you when you arrive for the performance, not in advance.
The Bar Noir serves a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages both in the bar and during shows. Younger customers are welcome (with parents if under 14), but are expected to adhere to rules of conduct common to all live performance spaces. The legal drinking age in Louisiana is 21 years. As with all live theatre written for adults, some shows are more appropriate to children than others, so be sure to ask.
