One of the attractions of the French capital, the Red Mill cabaret in the Red Light district in the 18th arrondissement of Paris. Now it is already a classic, a cabaret with a century-old history, founded in 1889. The cancan dance became a hallmark, striptease was performed here for the first time in 1893.Lutuz-Lautrec was a regular at the institution, and he painted several paintings about it. Charles Aznavour, Edith Piaf, and Mikhail Baryshnikov performed here.. A wonderful, colorful program, dancing, magic tricks, incredible costumes. They give you a small bottle of champagne to drink during the performance. I watched the show "Extravaganza" there, where, among other things, dancers swim in a pool with snakes, very cool! I remember the ticket cost about 115 euros, it's interesting that the ticket is for a late show (at 23 hours) it costs less. A cultural place. Being in Paris, it would be nice to visit.
Before entering the cabaret, you need to stand in line for about half an hour, in a room that looks a bit like an unsettled recreation center from the past. It was possible to approach a little later so as not to crowd in the queue. Then everything is fine. We took tickets to a table in the stalls, where champagne was already included. The show is worth a visit. Cancan, singers' performances, artists' performances are all at a very decent level. After the performance and going outside, there is a great view of the cabaret. The famous red mill in the backlight looks like on a postcard. A pleasant bonus to this view and impressions of the performance of the artists is a walk through the evening Montmartre. In general, the legendary cabaret, the legendary area of Paris and a good mood after a visit.
