Legendary Crazy Horse Paris is showcasing their sweeter side this summer with a collaboration that turns up the heat on a refreshing cool drink! To add a touch of dazzle and pizzazz to hot summer days and nights, Paris’ most renowned cabaret, Crazy Horse Paris, and the exclusive Domaine de la Périnade winery have teamed up to create a unique rosé collection

The limited-edition will be available exclusively from May 1 to September 30, 2023 and can be purchased one bottle at a time or the entire colorful “cast” of six all at once, at Crazy Horse Paris’ boutique. It can also be enjoyed during the show, where the wine will titillate the guests’  tastebuds and awaken their senses as they plunge into the stunning universe of the show Totally Crazy!.

An exceptional vintage demands an exceptional bottle! The Crazy Horse Paris x La Périnade bottles come in six bright and zesty colors, featuring the iconic wigs worn by the dancers, which the cabaret has been famous for over 70 years.

The 2022 vintage rosĂ© is 100% Grenache Noir. Thanks to the sandy soil of the Domaine de Perinade, the wine has a complex yet elegant character. Its tint is pale, clear and crystalline with hints of blue, and channels the aromas of white peach, pomegranate, and citrus with hints of licorice and pepper.  Crisp yet velvety, the finish is smooth and fruity.

“This collaboration with the Domaine de La PĂ©rinade is a true love story. Here at Crazy Horse Paris, we love to discover new talent… you might say we have a nose for beautiful and extraordinary stories!” explains AndrĂ©e Deissenberg, Chief Creative and Brand Officer at Crazy Horse Paris.  

“We are proud of our Crazy Horse Paris x La PĂ©rinade vintage: it’s the labor of love, that started as a dream.  With Crazy Horse Paris, we share a passion for quality, an attention to detail and of course, a touch of Crazy’ness!

The adventure began by selecting specific vines within our Grenache Noir vineyards, that were chosen based on the quality of the soil and the grapes.

We harvested at peak ripeness and followed an extremely demanding blending process under the supervision of our oenologist, and with the participation of several sommeliers that are friends of the Domaine. As a result, we created a beautiful vintage that best represents what we at the Domaine de la Périnade live to create.” adds Stéphane Arnal, owner of the Domaine de la Périnade.

Crazy Collection

To indulge in the pleasure of the senses, the rosé from the collaboration between these two ambassadors of the French “art the vivre” will be on available as part of the special “Crazy Collection” offer, that includes tickets to the show and a bottle of rosé for two.

A range of Crazy merchandise featuring the wigs’ design and bright colors will be on sale at the cabaret’s boutique.

Lastly, to celebrate the launch of the Crazy Horse Paris x Domaine de la Périnade limited-edition rosé, an Instagram filter will give everyone a chance to try on the iconic wigs, for a Totally Crazy look, making it the first cabaret in the world to have an Instagram filter.

Practical informations :

75cl bottle : €25, can be purchased at Crazy Horse Paris’ boutique.

The “Crazy Collection” offer, including tickets to the show “Totally Crazy” and a bottle of rosé: €135 per person.

Domaine de La Périnade

The Domaine de la PĂ©rinade was founded in 1830s.  Located next to Carcassonne between the Canal du Midi and the Fresquel river, the 50-hectare domain covers 17 hectares of vineyards.  Currently owned and operated by the 6th generation of the Arnal family, the focus on the Domaine de la PĂ©rinade has shifted to two key values: quality and the environment.


Quality: Almost everything has changed, from harvest size and method to the creation of a private cellar and arrival of a talented oenologist, Mr. Claude Serra.  Only 20-30,000 bottles are produced a year. They are the result of a rigorous and uncompromising selection process from the vine through to the blending process.


Environment: The domain was transitioned to High Environmental Value (Haute Valeur Environnementale, HVE) standards to ensure that operations are as environmentally friendly as possible.  The Domain has been officially HVE certified since 2021.
With these innovations, the Domaine produces exceptional vintages that showcase its unique terroir. A number of loyal prestigious clients have become the Domaine’s best ambassadors, from Crazy Horse Paris to Pouliche, the Café de Luce by Amandine Chaignot, Akrame Benallal and the famous Maison Lucas Carton.

The trendsetting and decidedly inventive French lingerie brand LIVY and the internationally renowned and emblematic Parisian cabaret, Crazy Horse Paris, have come together on a joint artistic venture to produce a collection of fine and sensual lingerie pieces, striking and resolutely Crazy, to be worn by day and night! Crazy Horse Paris and LIVY are a match made in heaven. Both houses shake the very foundations of their traditional artistic codes, by showcasing independent and self-confident women. This collaboration came to be by merging their rich artistic legacies and visionary inventiveness. Both share the same creative drive around the female form, an endless source of inspiration, exalting its curves, playing with its lines and contrasts. Women, the undeniable muses from which both houses draw their inspiration, are the body and soul of this exclusive collection. It tells the story of a modern day heroine, free, powerful, desirable, assertive and with a keen sense of humor.

“When I created LIVY, Crazy Horse Paris and its one-of-a-kind shows were an important  source of inspiration. The celebration of a confident femininity, the way the fabric and the movements of the female body combine and how they relate, the extraordinary play of visual illusions… All elements I seek in my own creations.  Designing this collection was a dream come true. I imagined designs that could be worn by both the Crazy Girls and also by all women who want to feel independent, alive and proud.”

Lisa Chavy, founder of LIVY

A capsule collection in limited edition

“Showtime”, “Peek-a-Boo”, “Very Crazy”, “Attitude”, “Venus Vanity”… the lingerie sets, with catchy names, reflect their unique identity and are a nod to the spectacular universe of the Parisian cabaret from which they hail. True to the LIVY codes, with its major “signature” elements, such as the monowire and the “trompe l’oeil” effects, the designs are made with the utmost attention to detail, a unique know-how for an inimitable “Totally Crazy” end result!

Nini PompĂ©i wears the « Peek-a-boo» set

A quirky and inimitable  "je ne sais quoi"!

Finding the rare gem takes time and persistence. Paris, Nice and Berlin: our artistic team travels far and wide in the hopes of finding new diamonds in the rough, just waiting to shine on the Crazy Horse Paris stage.

Criteria, such as a strong technical background in dancing or height, are essential. But it’s mainly charisma, that undefinable "je ne sais quoi” and which makes all the difference during the performances, which the recruiters are looking for. Incidentally, did you know that the required height to dance on the Crazy Horse stage (between 1m68 and 1m73) is directly linked to the stage’s size? The latter being a mere 2m high!

Do you, too, want to be a part of the most chic of all Parisian dance troupes? The Crazy Horse Paris will be auditioning again in early September 2022 (by invitation only). Click here for more information.

4 fantastic dancers are joining the ranks of the Crazy Horse Paris

The troupe is expanding with the arrival of 4 new dancers from the four corners of  the world: Guadeloupe, Dominican Republic, the Netherlands and Australia. On the 18th and 19th of August, after several weeks of intensive training, they took their first steps on stage.

As tradition demands it, they were given their stage names on the eve of their first public appearance. An emotionally charged moment they shared with the other dancers and which marked the true welcoming of these recruits into the house. It’s with emotion that Nini Pompéi, Paz Picaflor, Frida Whirlwind and Ginger Knockout were given their stage names. And each name tells a story which we are going to reveal to you.

Inès, alias Nini Pompéi, was born in mainland France, but grew up at the foot of a volcano in Guadeloupe. Originally from that island, she spent her entire youth there. Passionate about archeology and Italian culture, her name suits her perfectly!

Ginger Knockout pays tribute to Valérie’s sublime red hair and her ability to knock us off our feet… in every sense of the word! Not only is she a knockout beauty, but she also intensely trains in Taekwondo.

Mary-Grace, of Australian origin, becomes Frida Whirlwind. Indeed, she is deeply inspired by the iconic Mexican artist, Frida Kahlo. Passionate about traveling and adventure, she’s just waiting to unfurl her whirlwind of happiness upon the Crazy Horse Paris.

ZucaĂŻdi is now Paz Picaflor. Excellent Samba dancer, her new name refers to her Hispanic origins and the things she values most, such as peace, hummingbirds and flowers. A colorful and sparkling personality has made her debut at the Crazy Horse Paris!

Intensive training

Adopting the Crazy Horse Paris codes requires rigor, time and patience. Most dancers already possess a solid foundation in classical dancing, yet very specific training is given to every new recruit upon arrival.

Body language, adapting to what’s feasible, positioning when it comes to lighting...: it’s a whole new artistic world they will have to master. Group choreographies such as Baby Buns or You Turn Me On, are an integral part of the learning process. The arched back, signature pose of the house since its creation, is a subtle art and takes time to master.

The make-up, final touch underscoring the beauty of the dancer’s appearance, is by no means neglected. The stage director, Svetlana Konstantinova, shares her secrets with the new arrivals. Her goal: to accentuate an already strong personality with bright red lips and intense eyes. Lights: the Totally Crazy! show is about to start.

Raphaël

It’s been 24 years now that Raphaël is the exclusive Crazy Horse Paris wigmaker, ensuring that the emblematic “Crazy bob” endures. His attachment to the cabaret, his trade, his technique… true to himself, Raphaël tells us all about it in a luminous and engaged interview.

24 years of collaboration, what a lovely performance! Tell us about your beginnings at Crazy Horse Paris.

Back then, Crazy Horse Paris was working with the famous wigmaker Poulain who had just retired.  Sophie Bernardin was therefore looking for a successor. I simply introduced myself to her.

The first thing Sophie Bernardin asked of me was to conceive straight, bob-cut wigs of several colors, 15 in all. It’s important to note that the wigs are made of synthetic fibers and have been dyed in the mass, which reduces the amount of colors they can be made in. If the color were to be added to the wigs after they were already made, they would fade away quite quickly when washed. Yet I was still able to honor the request since the wigs were meant to be worn only for the making of the Taboo DVD and not on stage.

The first day of shooting, Sophie Bernardin said my wigs were “to die for” and that the Crazy Girls had to have them for the shows. It was a real challenge! Together with my manufacturer, I had to create a whole new fibre that could be dyed in the mass… that way I was able to make the wigs that had been asked of me.

How did you make the iconic Crazy bob yours?

Ah, that bob… do you know that in my salon they ask me for the Crazy haircut? It’s much more than a bob, it’s a true signature, a hallmark. It immediately reminds one of Crazy Horse Paris, you don’t even have to mention the cabaret’s name. It means adopting, with this mythical wig, the very DNA and values of Crazy Horse Paris. Everything is perfectly controlled and carries a vision of femininity as sublime as it is uninhibited at Crazy Horse Paris and with the wigs I create, I take part in the cabaret’s wonderfully beautiful identity.

The lengths, colors, fringes, geometry of the Crazy bob are practically unchangeable. I carry out the technical specifications with rigor, precision and passion. Sometimes, the bob takes liberties, as in the Glamazones act. That blue wig with the convex bangs and the short neckline, has also become part of Crazy Horse Paris artistic codes.

Outside of Crazy Horse Paris, how do you decline your art of the wig?

I am very proud of having created 126 wigs for a Zizi Jeanmaire revue at Casino de Paris, with costumes by Yves Saint-Laurent. I actually worked for him later on by making 50s style wigs which the famous designer found “divine”. I also produced all the wigs for the exposition dedicated to his muse, Betty Catroux, which is still being held at the Yves Saint-Laurent museum. I also make historical wigs, à la Marie-Antoinette, around 35 centimeters high!

But my wigs have also been worn by women who, due to illness, have lost their hair. I am a member of EREEL, who, with Souffle de Violette, have accompanied women who have cancer. A commitment that I take to heart and, as with the Crazy Horse Paris, do with passion.

One of our exquisite Crazy Girls will guide you on a very private VIP tour for an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the world-famous cabaret and its legendary dance troupe. Unexpected and immersive, this Crazy Experience has many a surprise in store for you!

She will reveal all the secrets and disclose step by velvety step what goes on backstage, a realm otherwise hidden from the audience.

An exceptional experience right at the heart of Glamour

Another hour and a half before the curtain is drawn. You are greeted in a completely redesigned Crazy Horse, more elegant and playful than ever, where every detail is a tribute to the venue’s artistic legacy. You enter through the powdery pink entrance hall, tread on the plush, red and kiss-spangled carpet and, sparkling mirrors on either side, descend steps to the Crazy Horse’s antechamber. The Crazy Experience is about to start with one of the iconic Crazy Girls. Surprises galore: Ring ring, that phone booth intrigues you! Peek-a-boo, this peeping wall is hiding hitherto unseen videos! Oh, the Pop Art bathroom where you can make out Lova Moor’s (the founder, Alain Bernardin’s muse) silhouette…  Your curiosity piqued, you dive into the vibrant and crimson atmosphere of the small venue. From the lip-shaped seats, to the private Lova-Lova and Rita Cadillac alcoves, or the Polly Underground bar, your imagination will abound with the history of the most glamorous cabaret of the French capital.

You will savor the opportunity to have the entire place all to yourself for this very special moment. During your visit your  special guide will reveal everything you’ve always wanted to know: what a day in the life of a dancer looks like, how they are recruited, how big the stage is, if the dancers can see the audience during the show… you’ll see, she’s passionate about sharing “her” Crazy Horse with you!

Hippy Bang Bang, dancer: “Our cabaret was founded in 1951 and has a unique history, full of surprising and fascinating anecdotes. By sharing them with the public, I’m sharing the dream!”

Behind the scenes chic at Crazy Horse Paris

Hidden from view behind the bar, a door leads backstage where delicious amuse-bouches and exceptional champagne await! You are in the former office of the Crazy Horse’s founder, the “Salon Bernardin”, covered in mirrors, red velvet and echoes from the past. It is here that the most emblematic acts were conceived and legends crossed paths.

The show starts in fifteen minutes! It’s time for your special guide to vanish from sight, only to reappear again later on stage. In a moment, in an instant, she will be there, dressed in light… will you be able to recognize her? In the meantime, you will be brought to your VIP seat where a half bottle of Laurent Perrier champagne (champagne Laurent Perrier) awaits. Your mind replete with golden bubbles and giddy musings, it’s time for the "Totally Crazy" show to begin!

Mika Do, dancer: “The Crazy Experience is an original way of connecting us to the audience and of unleashing its imagination before the show.”

Svetlana Konstantinova, stage and production manager: “The Crazy Experience provides depth and understanding. Those who have experienced it will see the show  with completely new eyes!”

Scene Crazy Girls Crazy Horse

Our “Crazy Experience” available in French every Friday and Saturday, every Sunday in English.

Our sparkly-eyed dancer, Bamby Splish Splash, has been fascinated by showing her artistic side in some form or other throughout her entire life. Allow us to introduce you!

How and why did you join the prestigious Crazy Horse Paris Girls troop?

I have wanted to go into drama for as long as I can remember! It was just something I knew from the day I was born. It’s more than just a fad, I’m driven. I have always loved Crazy Horse Paris due to its reputation as a luxury dance show. Crazy Horse Paris stands out from other cabaret halls, with its own unique, original and unusual style, the girls are really shown to their advantage.

It took me a while to become a Crazy Horse Paris Girl. I promised myself that when I reached the age of 18 I would try my luck, although I assumed I was unlikely to be selected. I have always taken drama and dance classes, however I don’t come from a traditional drama school, which meant that I wasn’t sure I had the right background. When I was 19, on January 1st, 2015, I finally sent my application in thinking, “I have nothing to lose”. I was lucky and a try out was organised in my home town on the next day, I took the date as a good sign and went… and I was selected! I started out with a tour in Seoul, which is a pretty unusual way to begin, before heading to the mythical Crazy Horse Paris stage for the first time about a year later.

Dancer Bamby Splish Splash Crazy Horse By Pixelle Canon

How do you spend your time when you aren’t on stage?

I rapidly found another way to express myself, something I find essential. I had played the role of Disney princesses, and I discovered a whole new and fascinating world: pins! I started by buying some, and following pin designers on Instagram…I had a few ideas of my own, and wanted to bring them to life. I launched my own â€śBamby Original” brand.

I then had the honor of designing a series of pins for Crazy Horse Paris: the iconic Crazy Girls wig in eight different colours. I started with black, blue, pink and yellow, and later added green and red, and the last two are now purple and orange.

Which is your favorite scene and why?

It is difficult to just pick one, I love Chain Gang and Lay Laser Lay. Both of these scenes give me plenty of freedom to play a role. They allow me to develop my artistry, express my inner self and the part of myself that I wish to share with the audience. The wild, almost beastly, sensuality of Lay Laser Lay is also a powerful feeling for me, something I love to merge with and express. I have only recently started to play this role, and I simply love it! 

How would you describe a Crazy Girl?

I like to describe Crazy Girls using three Cs: classy, charismatic and curvy. But being a Crazy Girl is clearly much more than that! One other point is important for me, I feel that my “Crazy Girl” role and my “alter ego” are one and the same. Even though I play a role on stage, I still bring my background and my feelings to the show, I am not betraying myself in any way, this is really me. I also greatly admire women in general, particularly my aunty! She is so strong, I can but respect her… and my Crazy Girl colleagues!

Come discover our dancer Bamby Splish-Splash every evening at Crazy Horse Paris for the show “Totally Crazy!”

It’s important to celebrate love every single day, but in February we get an extra-special chance to do so…  This year, Valentine’s Day will be creative, joyful and festive: come and join us at Crazy Horse Paris!

And the emblematic Crazy Girls will sweep you off your feet when they perform in the legendary cabaret’s most voluptuous acts, in a blend of iconic scenes and new creations.

Love is everywhere

At the boutique, fall for the elegant Crazy by Ladurée collection composed of a scented candle and a tea, in a glittering packaging and sprinkled with kisses: unforgettable gifts for your soul mate.

A one-to-one with Andrée Deissenberg, Crazy Horse Paris Chief Creative & Brand Officer, on the occasion of International Women’s Day.

Since she arrived at Crazy Horse Paris in 2006, AndrĂ©e Deissenberg, born of a French father and a US mother, has made no secret of her support for feminism, even though, as she says, the term can “frighten men”. The subject is very important to her and very much a part of the continuing renewal of this wonderful institution, the Crazy Horse Paris.

How would you define today’s woman in 2022?

I see today’s woman as a mix of all the iconic figures from Sex And The City plus the power of Beyonce and the glamour of Dita Von Teese: a strong woman in control, not of men, but of her own life. A working woman, enjoying motherhood – if that’s her choice – who’s not perfect but is at ease with herself. Modern women don’t burn their bra, they use it for their own purposes. First and foremost to please themselves.

And are the Crazy Girls women of today?

Our clever lighting makes the dancers look alike, but in reality they are all very different. They come from different countries, different cultures. Just like today’s woman: complex and uninhibited, free and multi-faceted. These are strong women, they have their vulnerabilities but can choose how much they show them. In truth, just like the rest of us…

What feminist values are expressed by the Crazy Girl? 

Back in the 40s, burlesque dancers were breaking a taboo by showing their naked bodies. They didn’t do it to please men but for the sheer pleasure of performing. It was an act of rebellion.

It’s different now. The artists at Crazy Horse Paris, the Crazy Girls or our “Crazy Entertainer” Lolly Wish, for example, consider themselves modern women in society, both on stage and in life.

They want to perform to their very best on this legendary stage, to an audience increasingly composed of women just as much as men (sometimes more).

Do you think women see themselves reflected in the show?

Like I said, these days women make up more than half our audience. They leave the show happy, proud to be women. The bodies are beautiful and nudity is not an issue. Women don’t have necessarily to be dancers performing on our stage to be touched by the show, it gives them confidence, they feel in some way empowered. It’s as if they are transported to another level. Crazy Horse Paris is expert at performances that exalt femininity and transcend reality, our shows are an expression of aesthetics and of art. Women always sense this, whether they’re on stage or in the audience.
