Event

Smoke & Shadows

Take a step back in time and treat yourself to an indulgent evening of Burlesque, savory deliciousness and a generous flight of whiskey.

Start with dinner and a whiskey flight at Saloon before you head down the hall to The Rockwell. Slow Roasted Baby Back Ribs, Chile rubbed, whiskey BBQ sauce, hush puppies, kale-apple coleslaw, paired with a Whiskey Flight consisting of Tyrconnell, Greenspot, Teelings Small Batch, Glendalough Double Barrel.

Beyond the bright marquees and dim speakeasy, there is a timeless place where bouncy vaudeville meets soulful sounds and fresh comedy meets the glint of rhinestones. Smoke and Shadows is the Rockwells monthly burlesque and variety show that defies decade and genre, each time offering a new mix of performers from near and far. Acts may span from carefree to poignant and from sexy to thought-provoking, but no matter the specifics, Smoke and Shadows will always guarantee a night of excellent entertainment.
