SECRET NEW ORLEANS: TJ & Di Terrorize Pharmacy! Humor, Satire & Comedy!

VIEUX CARRÉ CONFIDENTIAL! (series) episode #5 posted! TJ Fisher and Di Harris adventures! TJ and Di torpedo their friendly neighborhood French Quarter pharmacy — roller derby style, with ice-cream and silverware in tow! (A docusoap-parody!) Society-hatted TJ wields a Palm Beach polo mallet and family prescriptions in-hand, and gum-chomping Di dons lace-up roller skates. These "ladies who don't lunch" like cockamamie wisecracking. Absolutely fabulous mini sitcom!

The family owned and operated historical Royal Pharmacy space, marked by an old Coca-Cola Soda sign, is located on Royal Street in the French Quarter and has been a pharmacy for the past hundred years. Walking or roller-skating through the door is like taking a step back in time. Old-fashioned tile and wood floors, high tin-stamped fleur-de-lis ceilings, antique soda fountain and counter stand waft yesteryear's ambiance. The storied pharmacy is popular with filmmakers and television producers who regularly scour New Orleans locations — in search of choice Old World businesses and buildings which to shoot charming relics and authentic backdrop scenery.

VIEUX CARRÉ CONFIDENTIAL! provocateurs TJ and Di demonstrate how to visit the storied drugstore, madcap diva style.

Tennessee Williams filled his prescriptions at Royal Pharmacy, and Ruthie the Duck Lady was a former patron. Nowadays, Nicolas Cage, and other celebrities and superstars who reside in or pass through the French Quarter, Marigny and Bywater neighborhoods frequent the picturesque old-timey drugstore. Many concur that the centuries-old Quarter remains another country, a timeless place of many eras, a rebellious and boisterous Beignet-and-Bowery Republic unto itself. The secretive city stirs and provokes the senses. The Vieux Carré's fashion and frivolities carry forward the continuum from the eighteenth century to present day.

Firebrand French Quarter author/Bourbon Street resident TJ Fisher and whimsical fashionista/artist Di Harris make a memorable mark as absolutely fabulously outrageous New Orleans notables. Capricious and colorful, Tj and Di are the queens of comedic storytelling, prone to unrestrained bursts of political and societal incorrectness, mimicry and out-of-the-ordinary escapades.

Merrymakers and troublemakers TJ and Di have a reputation for a chameleon-like style, that plus an innate flair for high-stepping hijinks, antiquities of time, daredevil humor and thespian misadventures. TJ drives a '59 pink Cadillac convertible named Lulabell, and Di rides a 1968 "My Fair Lady" model banana-seat Stingray. TJ is a bestseller author of diverse works of New Orleans-based nonfiction and fiction. Di is a prize-winning designer and artist, and the proprietor of where the stars shop, Zogwald's of the French Quarter, an ever popular and trendy international boutique. (TJ also maintains a home in Palm Beach, Florida and Di in Melbourne, Australia.)

The vintage-style clip introduces Royal Pharmacy owner and pharmacist Kevin Tusa in a self-portrait cameo appearance, playing himself in jokester "character."
