Presented by eight dancers and featuring singer Gaïane Gantier, this show revisits the world of burlesque with elegance and refinement. Far removed from clichés and any hint of vulgarity, it celebrates glamour, artistic sensuality, and sophistication through a contemporary staging.

Throughout the performance, audiences are taken on a journey through a rich diversity of styles: from energetic street jazz to pure jazz, with scenes inspired by Bollywood influences, lively cha-cha rhythms, and vibrant festive moments. Each choreographer brings a distinctive artistic signature, creating a succession of scenes filled with emotion, contrast, and intensity.

A subtle narrative thread weaves the tableaux together. A story, perhaps a romance, gradually unfolding and adding depth and poetry to the overall experience.

Performed by semi-professional and professional artists, the show is the result of dedicated and passionate work. Set within the majestic surroundings of the Villars Palace, every detail; lighting, music, costumes, and choreography comes together to create an immersive, elegant, and unforgettable experience.

A glamorous, artistic, and vibrant event where burlesque rediscovers its true nobility.
