Moxie Simone

Moxie Simone began taking burlesque classes with Chicago Academy of Burlesque in 2019. She made her solo debut through the Chicago School of Burlesque and the Newport Theater in 2022. She specializes in bluesy and stunning sing and strips, avant-garde and more experimental burlesque, and makes an occasional foray into draglesque with her alter-ego Daddy 'Xie. She is a regular at The Drifter, Chicago's only remaining historical speakeasy. She is fearless, feral, and devastatingly gay.
