The Crazy Horse cabaret – also commonly referred to as Le Crazy – was founded in 1951 in Paris by Alain Bernardin, an avant-garde artist, passionate admirer of women and the female form. Fascinated by American show girls and the United States in general, he was driven by a single idea: to make artistic creation and women the focus of his cabaret.

Over the years, Alian Bernardin developed a unique and highly recognizable artistic signature.

Everyday of the year, the cabaret’s reputation and peerless prowess at exalting the female form attract an international as well as Parisian audience – pleasing women and men alike. The fundamental codes of the house were jealously retained after the death of its creator, leaving Crazy Horse Paris with the legacy of being a temple of Parisian nightlife, with a strong and distinctive image.

Each of his acts was conceived as a tableau with its own storyline, combining classically trained dancers with perfect, arched bodies dressed primarily in lights, with original choreography, sets, projections, and the latest musical and fashion trends. Le Crazy’s rich artistic legacy is recognized and celebrated among designers, artists and creators and designers all around the world, with many of whom Le Crazy has collaborated over the years: Christian Louboutin, Swizz Beatz, David Lynch, Bob Sinclar, Roberto Cavalli, Ellen von Unwerth, Paco Rabanne, Karl Lagerfeld, Emmanuel Ungaro, César, Kylie Minogue, Azzedine Alaïa, Christina Aguilera, Philippe Decouflé, Ali Mahdavi, Beyoncé… In 2006 Crazy Horse Paris decides to invite extraordinary women for exclusive, exceptional shows. Guest Stars to have appeared since then include Dita Von Teese, Arielle Dombasle, Pamela Anderson, Carmen Electra, Clotilde Courau, Claire Sinclair, Kelly Brook, Noémie Lenoir and a different kind of woman, Conchita Wurst. In its 68 years of existence, Crazy Horse Paris never ceased to explore the themes of womanhood and feminity to reinvent itself.

Crazy Horse Paris, whose name is a tribute to the American Sioux chief Crazy Horse, was originally a Right Bank wine cellar. Customers came for a drink and to admire Rita Renoir, Poupée la Rose, Bertha Von Paraboum, Lova Moor or Rosa Fumetto. Seated at little tables or standing at the bar, the atmosphere at 12, avenue George V was incomparable. Refurbished in 2007, this legendary venue is still red, lined with velvet, with lacquered wood and mirrors, and has been designed to be modular. The aim is to recreate a place where every element of the show and the theatre could be changed, like opening and closing the drawers of a jewellery box. In this way, Le Crazy will always be able to attract new ideas and keep on reinventing itself.
