Business Wire
Rick�s Cabaret International, Inc. (NASDAQ: RICK) will convert its
upscale Philadelphia gentlemen�s club to a Club Onyx for the night
of November 20th, giving Philly a taste of the concept that has
been a major success among African-American gentlemen in Houston,
Charlotte and Dallas. The entire 25,000 square foot club at 2907
South Columbus Blvd. will operate Thursday night with the Club Onyx
format, featuring the best in hip hop and R&B music, and
dancers brought to Philadelphia from New York City, Atlanta,
Charlotte, Houston and Dallas. �African-American gentlemen in our
other cities have responded enthusiastically to the Club Onyx
concept and we expect Philadelphia guys will love it, too,� said Ed
Anakar, Director of Operations for Rick�s Cabaret and the
originator of the format. �While there have always been clubs that
cater to African-American men, no one else has created a first
class, upscale environment that fully meets their specific taste in
entertainers, music, food and hospitality in a luxurious
atmosphere.� The doors for �Club Onyx� open at 7 pm, with drink
specials served all night and special guest appearances by
celebrity DJs, feature dancers and other entertainers. Rick�s
Cabaret Philadelphia (and for the night, Club Onyx Philadelphia) is
located just south of the professional sports complex where the
Eagles, Phillies, 76ers and Flyers play their home games and across
the street from a planned Foxwoods Casino. About Rick�s Cabaret:
