 About Siren Stiletto

Maggie Scott AKA Siren Stiletto won London’s heart by winning the Tournament of Tease Competition 2007 and Best Performer at the London Burlesque Festival 2008, the largest running Burlesque festival in the world. 

Siren comes from a strong theatrical family background, her great aunt was Zina Glad, a Vaudeville performer and dancer who owned a dance school and taught the young James Dean how to dance.  Siren embraced the theatre at a young age and grew to perform burlesque professionally in London with the urging of Mama JoJo, an iconic London performer and owner of the biggest Burlesque Academy in the UK where Siren trained. 

Siren’s style for performance is a unique blend of stunning and clever costuming, over the top glamour, wit and her signature charm. She always leaves the audience with a smile as her routines are light hearted and comical. She has performed in over ten countries including Brazil, France, Turkey, Finland, and Italy.

Siren moved to Chicago 2012 with the dream of producing quality cabaret style shows which promote professional live entertainment reminiscent of the supper clubs of the 1940’s.  Siren gained experience when working with Volupte, a London based cabaret club. She wants people to, ”get dolled up and experience something new and refreshing, an event worth talking about the next day!”  Her unique vision is an interactive sexy mix of food, drink, theatre, spectacle, and glamour. Her shows appeal to adults looking for a fresh, sultry, sophisticated type of evening/day out.  

Side note: Her favorite color is nude and she is addicted to feathers and glitter.
