Remembering Club My O My

sandy rogers While the purpose of this article is promoting Le Chat Revue's revisiting of it in a new production, there's still plenty of information on New Orleans' fabled Club My O My, a nightspot that at its height was as well-known as Finocchio's. The club that closed in 1972 boasted "the world's most beautiful boys in women's attire," including Mr. Sandy Rogers, pictured, "The Reason Gentlemen Prefer Blondes." It's a trip to yesteryear "when female impersonation was an art, artistes actually sang instead of lip-synched and calling a male chanteuse a "drag queen" could get you a good left hook from a velvet glove."
