Crazy Horse
The Crazy Horse is a Parisian cabaret founded in 1951 by Alain Bernardin on Avenue George V, known for dance shows combining artistic nudity, lighting effects, and carefully crafted choreography, in an aesthetic quite different from traditional feathered cabarets.
The shows rely on precise staging in which lighting and costumes create distinctive visual effects, often praised for their artistic quality as much as their spectacular nature. The cabaret continues to regularly renew its revues. It is advisable to book in advance and choose a dinner package if you wish to extend the evening on-site.
