WELCOME TO MRS. J’S KNIGHT CLUB!! The most happenin’ speakeasy in all of West Essex!! Floor Show Intro!

We do not speak about the Knight Club outside of this room. We do not share the password to the Knight Club with anyone outside of this room We do not bring our beverages anywhere near the computers All garbage gets thrown away in the black trash-bags Nothing gets taken out of this room RULES OF THE KNIGHT CLUB

Mrs. J is considered a flapper! Prohibition led many to feel a disdain for authority: young women illustrated this by wearing shorter dresses, cutting their hair, and wearing makeup. The Flapper Image was also made extremely popular through movies and celebrities of the time. The style followed French fashion, such as designs by Coco Chanel Flappers danced provocatively, drank alcohol, smoked long cigarettes, drove cars, and dated freely. From Gibson Girl to Flapper ALL ABOUT THE BENEFACTOR/OWNER OF THIS FINE ESTABLISHMENT!

18 Amendment: Prohibition – January 16, 1920 – prohibited the "...manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors within, the importation thereof into, or the exportation thereof from the United States..." Resulted in bootlegging, creation of speakeasies, and the expansion of organized crime WHY ARE WE HERE, MEETING IN SECRET TO SOCIALIZE?

They used hip flasks, false books, coconut shells, hot water bottles and garden hoses to transport illegal liquor People stored the contraband in prams with babies perched on top and in carpenter's aprons with big fat pockets. One man was even caught hustling liquor over the border in two boxes of eggs: He had drained the eggs of their original content and refilled them with liquor. INNOVATIVE WAYS AMERICANS BROKE THE LAW

BOOTLEGGING

Formed in 1920s as a means to get around everyday hassle of law enforcement watching for people to violate the 18 th Amendment Speakeasies were a place where people could go to socialize, drink alcohol, gamble, and DANCE! Owners of speakeasies would often pay off Federal Prohibition Agents, police officers, and the district attorney to look the other way The alternative to these payments was to have an elaborate and expensive system for concealing the evidence whenever there was a raid, as you will see during this Speakeasy Tour!
