Club My-O-My

Club My-O-My was a former nightclub in the New Orleans area that employed female impersonators as entertainers.

In 1933, a predecessor to Club My-O-My, the Wonder Bar, opened up with underground drag shows.

Owner Emile Morlet requested an injunction in court, but was denied on grounds that the club was a menace to morality.

[4][5] Club My-O-My had a sheriff assigned to keep watch at the front door for any issues.

[7] One source says that Club My-O-My catered to a white audience, both heterosexuals and homosexuals, and was popular with tourists.

It took only a couple of nights to learn they did all the tricks of Calumet City and a few new ones.Customers purchased overpriced drinks, photos of female impersonators in drag, or other small items.

[9] Away from work, entertainers from Club My-O-My also cruised the French Quarter for tourists, to turn tricks.
