'Féerie',
the Moulin Rouge's new show
'Féerie' consists of : a troupe of 100 artists, including
60 Doriss Girls recruited world-wide ; 1000 costumes of feathers,
rhinestones and sequins, made in the most famous Parisian
workshops ; sumptuous sets in shimmering colors, uniquely
designed by Italian artists ; outstanding international acts,
and the awaited return of the giant aquarium; all this performed
to original music recorded by 80 musicians and 60 chorus singers.
'The Moulin Rouge today and yesterday, the Moulin Rouge forever:
The theatre lights go down, the curtain is raised…and
the entire troupe appears on stage, under the admiring gaze
of the audience, who find themselves entering the Garden of
the Moulin Rouge to discover the magical atmosphere of the
place ! A touch of nostalgia.
From this moment on, the spectators let themselves be enthralled
by the beauty of the Doriss Girls and the Doriss Dancers!
'Sandokan':
What kind of adventures can happen to a pirate whose boat
is anchored in Indonesia ? Dreams ? The love of a perfect
woman ?...
Once on land, we meet priestesses, and a Gorgon in her temple
surrounded by snakes… we can even attend the Governor’s
Ball ! Sandokan has the opportunity to offer his treasures
to the lady of his dreams; or will we be witnesses to a sacrifice
of love ?
'The Circus':
The circus comes to town… with its band of clowns, Siamese
twins, pierrots, acrobats, jugglers, weird wild animals and
six miniature horses ! Colourful scenes to beautiful music
ending with the great parade of the Doriss Girls and Doriss
Dancers.
'The Moulin Rouge from
1900 to…':
The Moulin Rouge pays a tribute to Parisian women throughout
the years : on the 14th of July, for the Liberation of Paris
… with Java or Boogie music. Time passes and leaves
space for new generations of women, more beautiful and free
than ever !
As the highlight of this tribute, the Doriss Girls dance the
world famous French Cancan !
HISTORY:
Carefree life, Flickleness
and Joie de Vivre... Those are the three words that could
best sum up this unique period in the History of France. It
was a rest between two wars, a period of transition between
two centuries, during which the social barriers collapsed,
when the industrial revolution gave hope of a better life
for all, in a rich cultural profusion and that promised much
fun.
The middle-class mixed with the riffraff, the popular culture
was enchanced in a contented disorder full of joy and vitality.
In that atmosphere, which favoured artistic creativity, literary
circles appeared and disappeared according to people'meetings,
while painters and drawers got especially inspired by this
joyful sometimes outrageous but full of fancy
atmosphere that broke completely with the rigid classicism
of that period.
The Japonism *, a movement of Far-East inspiration using influences
from the Japanese style in French Art, was at its height.
Toulouse-Lautrec and his famous Japanese engravings was one
of the most famous disciples of that time. The atmosphere
fitted perfectly to the appearance of the first cabarets,
such as the Moulin Rouge in 1889
The Dinner:
The tradition of cabaret does not rest on gastronomy, nonetheless
Laurent TARRIDEC a Chef acclaimed by the Guide Michelin and
with one 'toque' granted by the Gault-Millau guide, makes
the Table of the Moulin Rouge delicious experience. From Brittany,
this chef was head chef and owner of the restaurant Leu Mouscardins
in Saint-Tropez (on the French Riviera), and wanted to put
his talents to the service of the prestigious Moulin Rouge.
As he said 'At the Moulin Rouge, every night is a feast. The
courses we prepare have to be as good and beautiful as the
scenes, costumes and dancers.' Gala nights are for him occasions
to create exciting and new menus, which blend the most delicious
shellfish with the most noble meats and wines.
