What does tournee du chat noir mean?

Travel Tips
Tournee in this context means "tour" like a band tour, so it would mean "black cat tour".

In this particular case, it was the name of a theater company playing in a famous club called Le Chat Noir, ran by Rudy Salis and Aristide Bruant in Paris' Montmartre district early 1900's. They were providing on stage entertainment: theater, poetry, music, shadow theater.

Everybody today is familiar with the artwork of Parisian artist Theophile Steinlen promoting the club and its theater company: http://images.google.com/images?sourceid...

I think it's: "round of the black cat "
It could be 'Turn of the black cat'
that a really good question, but I'm afraid I don't know the answer.

What's strange is that I'm French, and I've never ever heard somebody saying that ?

In France both "vendredi 13 and chat noir" are "bad luck" signs for some people. Does it has anything to do with your question ?? Could be possible, might mean the 13th tourn茅e ????

(in that case, anyway, nobody could tell it, 'cause everybody would be completly drunk !!! ;-))
