A Symbol of Parisian Life
Crazy Horse Paris shows rely on classically trained dancers, who
are specifically cast for their precise aesthetic attributes, stage
talent, charisma and a certain ‘je ne sais quoi’…
On stage, their femininity is enhanced, celebrated and
revealed for the voyeuristic delight of the audience.
Crazy Horse Paris shows combine a series of vignettes where
dazzling dancers or their silhouettes act out universal fantasies.
While performing their bodies are bathed in richly colored and
textured lighting design that is so stunning that it is hard to
determine where skin ends and the reflections begin…
The performances engage the imagination as much as
the eye!
Forever Crazy World Tour
In 2010, Forever Crazy, a jewel show which includes the best acts
from the historical and the modern Crazy Horse repertoire, will
kick off an international, first class World Tour.
The show consists of ninety minutes of naughtily delicious and
surprising choreographic acts, sensually performed by a total of
up to ten daring performers as well as a variety performance by
an internationally renowned variety artist.
The show can be presented in theatrical venues as well as in
multi-use / open spaces (exhibition halls, convention centers,
covered halls, ateliers, revamped factories …), that will be
customized to combine the atmosphere and feel of the original
Parisian cabaret with a provocative, contemporary and stylish
touch staging relic images from the mythical history of
the cabaret.
The choice of venue and the creative theming of the space is
paramount to the success of the show experience and adds a
special buzz to the arrival of the Crazy Girls and the show.
Champagne
service
during the show is a
plus and contributes to
making the experience
complete!

Fun Crazy Numbers
Le Crazy Horse Paris masters the art of very precise shows with
kaleidoscopic beauty, sensuality & passion.
The casting requirements leave nothing to chance; the
dancers' bodies must comply with the exact aesthetic criteria
originally designed by Alain Bernardin:

• Leg length in proportion to the chest: 1/3 – 2/3
• Distance between nipples: 27 cm
• Distance from navel to pubis: 13 cm

one costume.
Each year the dancers use:

• 300 “Crazy Red” lipsticks
• 720 pairs of false eyelashes
• 2500 pairs of stockings

A Turn Key Tour Kit
Forever Crazy tours with a Turn-Key Kit.
The kit consists of a sophisticated, self contained and equipped
truss structure that can either be set-up on a stage or in a large
open space.
To make the sensual experience complete and create the
feeling of a cozy, intimate cabaret, we strongly suggest to
arrange for the venue to be accessorized according to our
scenic instructions and with champagne bars.
Presenting the show in a exhibition type hall offers many economic,
artistic and strategic advantages that deserve special consideration.
The scenic kit includes pre-designed and adaptable elements &
accessories which delimit the space, special bars, a seating layout, a boutique merchandise area and a ticket counter, as well
as pre and post show entertainment concept and all that jazz… !
The trademark stage is designed like a “frame”, which outlines
and highlights the dazzling dancers (6 m large x 2 m high) much
like a sensual masterpiece.
For an intimate, sensual experience the capacity should not
exceed 650 seats, though this is variable.

Go Crazy, make your dream come true – Book Now
Bookings are based on a
minimum of 1 week stay per
city, but experience has
taught us not to limit the
pleasure. We recommend
runs of 10 days (over 2
weekends) or more
to
increase potential returns.
The show and Crazy Girls
offer enough angles to
secure weeks of media
coverage and word of
mouth quickly spreads that
Forever Crazy is by far the
hottest show in town. Ideal
runs in average cities consist
of 10 * shows per week or 20*
per 10 day periods.
This type of exclusive engagement traditionally commands high
ticket prices (in Paris between 80 and 100 Euros per person). This,
coupled with a sassy bar service, allows for potentially sexy
revenue streams.
*number of shows is conditional to the travel and load in schedules and
financial conditions.
