Bill Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins Opens Tea Shop in Highland Park

For over a year Billy Corgan has been working on Madame ZuZu’s teashop. Tomorrow, September 13, that hard work will finally pay off. The shop, located at 582 Roger Williams Ave., Highland Park will be open for business starting at 8:00 a.m. At 11:00 a.m. onward, Corgan will play several acoustic sessions throughout the afternoon.

“I’m a tea guy and living in Highland Park since 2003, I’ve always wanted to open a salon like this for everyone to enjoy,” says Corgan. “This is a place with no age boundaries. We hope to attract everyone from young students to seniors. With a blend of music, photo galleries, art displays and speakers, I think Madame ZuZu’s offers something for everyone.”

Madame ZuZu is designed to serve as a social hub for the community. The shop will feature a rotating menu of teas from across the globe, plus light vegan pastries from all spheres.

Madame ZuZu’s hours of operation will be Tuesday-Thursday 8:00 a.m. – 8:00 p.m., Friday & Saturday 8:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m., Sunday 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. and closed on Mondays. Please go to the official website here for more information.
