The
show uses a combination of light effects, projection,
film and choreography to create a sensuous rapture of
dance. There's humor, too, in the revue. In 'God Save
Our Buckskin' the luscious ladies are dressed as Buckingham
Palace Guards -- or at least in the guards' hats and
boots. 'Classico Loco' is less of a laugh but much more
erotic, as the dancers entwine their limber bodies about
one another. And as with any great strip show there's
a built-in complicity, perhaps more subtle here but
complicity all the same -- of the audience with the
dancer. The intimate 400-seat theater is lined in rich
red velvet with photos of the show in Paris.
The show is pronounced: "La Fahm" (Fahm is
pronounced like aah!)
"La Femme" is a first for America and Las
Vegas, a show direct from one of the hottest nightspots
in the world, the original Crazy Horse in Paris, famous
for its productions celebrating beautiful women and
the art of the nude since 1951.
"La Femme" uses a combination of light effects,
film, and projections to create dramatic effects: some
subtle, some humorous and all sensual.
All 12 of the international collection of dancers are
members of the original Crazy Horse dance troupe. La
Femme dancers are trained in ballet and perfectly integrate
into sensuous choreography as their bodies are bathed
in colored and textured lighting designs.
For more than 50 years this French cultural phenomenon
has drawn international and U.S. celebrities such as
Madonna, Warren Beatty, Sophia Loren, Elizabeth Taylor,
Sting, and Elvis Presley.
Guests must be at least 21 years of age to attend "La
Femme." |
