About this Event

Sweet Storm Productions & Belles Femmes Noir invite you to a celebration of culture, and community in the heart of New Orleans.


Quartier Rouge Noir is more than a burlesque show—it’s a Burlesical (Burlesque + Musical Theater) experience that honors the rich legacy of Black artistry, feminine power, and the vibrant spirit of Storyville. Join us at Maison for a soulful journey through performance and music, where storytelling meets sensuality and everyone is welcomed with warmth and wonder.

Your ticket includes:


  • Spoken Word and prose performances and collaboration with Sweet Storm Productions
  • Dazzling burlesque performances by Belles Femmes Noir, a troupe of native New Orleanian artists
  • A celebration of Black, LGBTQ+, and intergenerational voices through live entertainment


This event uplifts underrepresented performers and brings neighbors together across generations and identities. Whether you're here to indulge, connect, or just experience something new—we invite you to feel at home, be inspired, and support the arts that make New Orleans shine.

Inspired by the legendary Mahogany Hall, Quartier Rouge Noir channels the elegance, edge, and sensual spirit of Storyville’s most iconic brothel— The House of Sweet River Waters is where burlesque, beauty, and rebellion reigns supreme.

At Sweet Storm Productions, we are devoted to nurturing the brilliance of New Orleans' artists of color. Rooted in the spirit of this storied city, we produce and present theatrical works and artistic experiences that uplift voices too often unheard.


Our mission is to create sacred and intentional spaces where POC artists can share their truths, shape culture, and shine without compromise. Through performance, storytelling, and collaboration, we honor heritage, cultivate creativity, and open doors to possibility — in New Orleans and beyond.


In proud collaboration with Belles Femme Noir, we are building a future where art becomes liberation and every voice is a vital note in the symphony of our collective story.


We are more than a production company. We are a gathering storm of vision, beauty, and transformation.
