Commanding. Powerful. Raw. Vulnerable.

Equal parts playfully innocent and dangerously kinky, Shay Au Lait is a provocative, intoxicating Sorcerer hailing from the Windy City. (Chicago, IL) Shay is a Producer, Performer, and Instructor specializing in burlesque, cabaret, BDSM, pole dance, go-go, and theater through immersive & transformative experiences and healing art rituals. Visceral and electric, the Typhoon of Temptation is a force to be reckoned with known for spiraling erotic energy into breathtaking ceremonies on stage.

With over 15 years of professional experience in theatre, dance, and performance, Shay Au Lait has erotically consecrated the stages for production companies, showcases, festivals, burlesque shows, drag events, fetish parties, and nightlife both nationally and internationally for private & public events. Select favorite venues include the National Liberty Museum, The Howard Theatre, House of Blues New Orleans, Union Transfer Philadelphia, Headliners Music Hall, Santos Party House, Madame X, House of Yes, and Baltimore Soundstage.

With 12 years of pole dance and striptease experience, 10 years of Fetish and BDSM exploration, and 20 years of event and stage production, Shay is a powerful and seductive force to be reckoned with. She considers herself a fellow siren of the same bloodlines of Dorothy Dandridge, Eartha Kitt, and Pearl Bailey. She is often called the Kinky Siren Switchress!
