September 5, 2021Ilov is a remarkable performance artist whose sensuality, physical strength and command of stage and audience are unparalleled. I booked Ilov as the headliner for Scandalous Saturdays Burlesque at Troupe429 LGBTQ Bar and Performance Space in Norwalk, Conn., and she lived up to every bit of the hype. Tickets sell quickly when you tell folks the Queen of Lap Dance is on the way! Ilov agreed to raffle off the lap dance chair to juice the tip pool, and we set a new record in my show's history of tip payouts. She brought my show to another place, a sensual and sacred place where soul melted into flesh and everyone sang together. On top of all that, Ilov is kind, pleasant, collaborative, adaptable. I'm ready to bring her back and scale up her performance next time!
