Overview

Leaning towards the classic side of the burlesque spectrum, Poison Ivory's performance style can best described as a combination of sultry expression, sensual movement and thoughtful musicality. A study in contrast, as her name and tagline suggest -Brown Sugar and Spice- she possesses the quick and the slow, the sweet and the nasty, the sultry and the innocent, and the ability to seamlessly transition between them. From Brooklyn NY, she was crowned Miss Exotic World 2016 of the Burlesque Hall of Fame. Poison performs as a soloist, as well as with the House of Noire, and recently created her own production company. So if you want a single entertainer, or an entire production, you're covered!

Wonderful Performance

Miss Poison Ivory provided a wonderful performance for my dad’s 100th birthday. She was very accommodating for our situation and stay after to take pictures with guests many of whom asked for booking information for their upcoming events. Thanks for making dad’s day special

A feast for the eyes! Simply ravishing!

It was an absolute delight working with Poison Ivory and her fellow dancers! They are personable, glamorous, energetic and immensely gifted in every way.....the consummate performers! They put on a tremendous show, and the crowd was madly in love with them. Everything from the costumes to the dancing itself was seductive, playful and incredibly sexy. If you are looking for talent that fits every bill, you have just found it! I will most certainly be calling Miss Poison Ivory in the future to have her perform at other events. Enjoy!

What to expect

To have a good time.

I'm kidding. It really depends on what the client wants. I'm honest and tell them if its possible, or something I can/can't do.
At the end, I want my clients to feel the same way as my audiences, wanting more. :)

About

I am a burlesque performer who, after living my life for others, has decided to live life for myself. And part of that involves me removing most of my clothing. However, I am a professional and I make sure I put forth my very best in my performances.

I really love this art form and I am so thankful for all the beautiful dancers who came before to make this possible for someone like me. I don't want to say that burlesque saved my life, but it definitely changed it for the better. It really changed me. So I take pride in my events. Whether it's just me on a tiny little stage, or producing an intimate show for a special event (I hope to get more of those...), I wanna make sure to give a good show.

So if you're interested, contact me. Burlesque is adaptable to many different venues and events.

And I'll end with with the an exclamation, as it was said to me in my burlesque essentials class by an amazing performer and teacher... "There's enough shitty Burlesque out there! Don't add to it. Please!"

I don't plan to <3

Additional booking notes

My acts will adapt to the surroundings. Stage, lighting, personal DJ... all that is great. :) But i'd also performed in the backyard, lit by candles and an old lamp for a friends birthday, and it was a fantastic time.

Set list

Depends on the gig. Might create something special just for your event.

Influences and inspiration

Right now I'm really influenced by Joe the Shark and his regular gig The Shark Bite SideShow. I had the privilege of kittening one of his shows, and i had a blast there. I have plenty more people I can add to this list, but I dont want to get carried away. But I really like the shows that Joe the Shark are putting on. And please dont let the name fool you. I of all people believe in that. ;-)

Setup requirements

Stage is preferred, not not necessary.

Sound system.
