Five exceptional shows
By inviting the Blackpink star to perform on stage, Crazy Horse also hopes to attract a new clientele, younger and still just as feminine. “Somehow, it is our audience of tomorrow (…) Because the Crazy Horse has become a symbol of the woman who is proud of it, free, curious, comfortable in her shoes. I also think that by deciding to do that, Lisa is showing the same thing. »
This attractive artistic collaboration continues Crazy Horse’s tradition of calling on distinguished guests. We obviously remember the sensual shows of Dita Von Teese, seventeen years ago, as well as the performances of Pamela Anderson, Clotilde Courau, Ariel Dombasle, Noémie Lenoir, Conchita Wurst and even Viktoria Modesta. At the end of September, only one departure from custom, no specific number was imagined for the occasion. Lisa will perform those already present in the cabaret repertoire, along with the rest of the troupe.
