Indicative
The House Card
The list at the door.
- Your name on the list any night you say you are coming
- Priority on a table before 10 PM
- First look at competition and event dates
FeeBy arrangement
The entry card. Written for this study.
Membership
Two ways in, and one of them is a phone call from a member
Membership at Ten’s is by invitation from a current member, or by application. That is the club’s own arrangement and it is the whole of it — there is no third door, and there is no price on this page.
The club’s own photograph of its own room. Its site notes that images are for illustrative purposes and posed by models; we have kept both the picture and the note.
What it is
A card, and the nights that don’t get announced
Members get the private nights — the ones that never reach the public calendar. Smaller rooms, invited guests, and a bill put together for the people in it rather than for a Friday crowd. The rest of the year it means a host who knows your name before you have given it.
The calendar you can see is not the whole calendar.
What the club publishes
- Members-only private events
- Entry to the membership by invitation from a current member
- The club’s own description: reserved for a select few
These three are the club’s own words, from its own membership and events pages.
What we’ve written Indicative
The club has never published any of these. They are what a membership at a room this size would reasonably carry, written for this design study. Nothing here is a promise the club has made, and benefits are confirmed with you before any card is issued.
The cards
Three cards, no prices
Ten’s runs membership by invitation and by application. The tier structure below was written for this design study — the club sets the real terms when they call you, and it has never published a fee, a level or a benefit list of its own.
- Indicative
Ember
A table that’s already yours.
- Everything in The House Card
- A table held on Fridays and Saturdays
- A standing bottle preference kept on file
- A direct line to a host rather than the main number
FeeBy arrangement
The middle card. Written for this study.
- Indicative
Proscenium
The room, on your terms.
- Everything in Ember
- The private suite on request
- Access to the members-only nights
- The club’s number in your phone, and yours in theirs
FeeBy arrangement
The top card. Written for this study.
No number on this page is the club’s. If you want to know what membership actually costs, that is a question for +1 347-630-7077, and it is a fair one to ask before you apply.
How it works
Two ways in
A current member puts your name forward
That is the fast one. If you were given a code, bring it to the form below.
You apply here, and the floor manager reads it himself
Six questions. Applications are read by a person, not by a form robot.
Applying is not joining. The house reads every application and takes some of them. Membership is not for sale, and there is no price on this page for that reason.
Apply
Tell us who you are
If a current member sent you, put their name and code in — it is the fastest route in. If nobody sent you, that is fine too; say what brings you to the room. Either way it goes to the same inbox and the same person reads it.
You started an application earlier. Restore it?
It’s written out
Nothing has been sent. This site is an independent redesign of Ten’s Cabaret and has no connection to the club’s systems — there is no server behind this page to send anything. Your application is written out in full below. Hand it to your own mail app or copy it; either way it isn’t sent until you press send yourself.
Your note was long, so the email was shortened to fit. The full version is on your clipboard.
The mail button addresses the club’s real inbox, tenscabaret@hotmail.com. The phone number is real too, and it is the one channel on this page that cannot fail.
Questions
Questions
Ten’s publishes no membership FAQ, and we are not going to write one and put their name on it. Nothing here is published yet. Call+1 347-630-7077 and ask directly — whoever picks up knows more about the arrangement than this page ever will.
No card required
Or just come in
Membership is not required to visit. The room is open seven nights from 5 PM, the door takes walk-ins, and a table can be held with a phone call.
