Dita Von Teese At Crazy Horse – Dita Von Teese interview
BURLESQUE legend Dita Von Teese has released a DVD of an intimate and brilliantly staged live performance she did at legendary venue, The Crazy Horse, Paris. She talks to IndieLondon about what it was like to perform, the inspiration for her new number, Le Bain Noir (The Bath), and why burlesque is so popular…
Q. What was it like performing at the Crazy Horse in Paris?
Dita Von Teese: It’s completely different than any other show I’ve done… not only is the venue more intimate than most stages I dance on, the professionalism of both the dancers and the staff made it a pleasure for me to create acts just for that show. It’s nice to be bathed in that mythical Crazy Horse lighting and to be surrounded by those amazing girls! I know a lot about the history of the Crazy Horse, and so it’s really an honour for me to be there on that stage. It’s not like any other show in the world, and I’m very proud to have a place in it.
