The Drifter

Exciting news! I am the new entertainment director for a wonderful bar called, The Drifter. It was an authentic speakeasy back in the 20s and they have stayed true to the atmosphere of that era. It is a very intimate space with exceptional cocktails by Liz Pearce. You can find The Drifter in the basement of the Green Door Tavern.

I will be programming talent of all kinds Wednesday thru Saturday. Burlesque, circus, variety, magic, musicians, singers, etc. You never know what you will see when you come to The Drifter. You might even see me!

Drifter-AuditionNotice-Aug2-2015On August 2nd, I will be holding auditions from 12-5pm for all types of talent (no aerial or fire). If you, or anyone you know is interested, please contact me at michelle@michellelamour.com.

Hope to see you sometime at The Drifter, whether as a performer or in the audience!

September at a Glance

How is it September already? I hope your summer was wonderful and full of adventures.  Mine certainly was! I was able to travel to Madrid and Paris and perform ‘Butthoven‘ on TV shows and see their beautiful cities.  I never thought my butt would take me so many places!

But, now, I’m back in Chicago and excited to entertain you! On September 9th, Speakeasy returns to the Everleigh Social Club.  We’re changing this to a monthly show, rather than weekly.  We’ll have more dancers and swingers and the band will be rockin’!  For more info, click [here].
