MEET "THE CLOWN OF THE COSMOS"...
“THE NAME’S NOVA…
…JACKIE NOVA.”
My dive into burlesque all started with daydreaming on the subway
while traversing to and fro my survival jobs.
These mental wanderings all shared a common thread:
a vision of myself dancing in a spotlight,
with allure & comedy mixing in theatrical display.
I followed that daydream to the NY School of Burlesque where I enrolled in a class.
Shortly thereafter I auditioned for an all-male boy-lesque troupe,
and then joined the ranks as one of their inaugural members.
Thus was born… *JACKIE NOVA*
Since then, Jackie has performed at numerous venues and events, including
The Slipper Room
Stonewall Inn
