Cotton Club
An emblem of the Jazz Age and the Harlem Renaissance, the Cotton Club is best known for its gilded past and for providing residencies to Duke Ellington and Cab Calloway. Some 80 years later, the club is still going strong and has live jazz and blues almost every night and a gospel brunch on Sundays.
The Cotton Club opened in 1923 under the patronage of Al Capone and the ownership of bootlegger "Owney" Madden. Though often associated with the golden era of the Harlem Renaissance, the club also embodies the paradox of this time. Decorated to evoke the old plantations of the home of black slavery, the club was owned by whites for whites. Only whites were allowed in the audience, while the waiters and entertainers, almost all African Americans, had to use a different entrance.
The club's regular show was a musical revue which featured glamorous dancers, singers, comedians and various entertainers. The Duke Ellington Orchestra was the house orchestra for a number of years between 1927 and 1931. After that the mantle was passed to Cab Calloway.
Mr John Beatty is the current owner who opporates an all inclusive door policy.
