The art of burlesque, with its shades of glamour, humor and daring, is brought to life again on Sundays at the Théâtre Michel by Valentina del Pearls' Cabaret Burlesque troupe. In a breathtaking celebration of the 1920s to 1940s, audiences are transported back to the Golden Age of American Burlesque.
Burlesque cabaret, much more than a show, is an ode to feminine disobedience and strength of character. Behind the glitter of sequins and the gentle movement of feathers lies a story of resilience. A time when, despite prohibition and rigorous censorship, women found ingenious ways of circumventing obstacles, elevating this ancestor of striptease to the rank of art.
The show is not limited to the stage. As soon as you enter the theater, you're immersed in the atmosphere of the time. Whether in a mysterious corridor or over a drink in the foyer, spectators are encouraged to keep their eyes and ears wide open. The magic of cabaret can be experienced everywhere, and Cabaret Canaille is a vibrant testament to this.
The artists, including singers, dancers and burlesque strippers, offer a breathtaking performance. Playing with their curves with grace, humor and a touch of provocation, these women evoke an era when strippers were elevated to star status.
If paradise is reserved for the good girls, Cabaret Canaille is a mischievous reminder that the bold go wherever they please. The phrase,"Nice girls go to heaven, but the others go wherever they want", captures the essence of the show's spirit, evoking the freedom, independence and daring of the women who have shaped the history of burlesque.
Don't miss your chance to experience a unique evening, where the past meets the present in a daring and memorable dance.
