Sunday, September 13, 2026, 11:00 PM - 2:00 AM · Club Cumming, East Village, New York City
Club Cumming hosts a burlesque open stage for first-time performers on September 13, giving new acts a shot at the club's famous stage in front of a supportive crowd.
You enter through a modest storefront near the Bowery. But up a few flights, you're stepping into a queer wonderland: chandeliers, vintage mirrors, chaise lounges, fringe lamps, sequins on every surface, and a mood like someone’s glamorous house party that’s never ending. Owned by Alan Cumming, it blends cabaret, performance, DJ sets, and spills over into drag, burlesque, comedy, and wild karaoke. So expect surprise guests, theatrical moments, and an inclusive crowd dressed wide-open. Drinks lean strong, music eclectic, and by midnight the place feels less bar than living room on fire.
