Crazy Girls

ScĂšne God Save Our Bareskin Crazy Horse By Antoine Poupel

Very rigorous training

For 500 applications received each year, only a handful of lucky candidates make it into the troupe, since the criteria, laid down by Alain Bernardin, are highly selective from dance training to expressive talent, without forgetting that little “je ne sais quoi” that makes all the difference.

At the moment, over 30 dancers delight Crazy Horse Paris audiences on stages all over the world. They have all received classical ballet dance lessons and, in order to become true Crazy Girls, have to undergo three to five months intensive training.

Upon successful completion of the demanding instruction, the dancers are baptized with their ‘nom de scùne’, right after their first public stage performance.

Did you know ?

The Crazy Girls hail from over 10 different countries, amongst which France, Italy, Canada, Ukraine, England, Australia, the Netherlands, Lebanon, the Dominican Republic, the United States


Each dancer has approximately six pairs of made-to-order shoes. All the costumes are also custom-made for each dancer by the dexterous little hands working for Crazy Horse Paris costume department: it takes about one whole week for a couturier to make a single costume.

At Crazy Horse Paris, each year the Crazy Girls go through: 2500 pairs of stockings, 500 liters of makeup and 300 specially made “Crazy Red” lipsticks.

Their dressing room is naturally strictly off-limits to men, to the public of course, but also to all the cabaret staff, with the exception of the stage manager and the dresser.

Amongst the most famous dancers to have performed on the legendary stage, impossible not to mention Rita Renoir, Bertha von Paraboum, Yoko Tani, Miss Zabou, Rosa Fumetto, Lova Moore, Polly Underground, Stella Patchouli, Miss Tallulah, Aria Crescendo, Zula Zazou, Psykko Tico, Jade Or, Fasty Wizz, Kika Revolver, Gloria di Parma
