Creative Origins

For Creative Director Lola Ohlala, French cabaret was love at first sight. After many years dancing, choreographing, discovering its unique history and legendary artists, her passion remains strong and she never tires of its richness.

Sexy, elegant, yet funny or a tad nostalgic, French cabaret is, for Lola, a fantastic way to reflect the emotions life drives one through. In a world where everything is getting bigger, faster, computerized, and mechanized, she believes in the importance of creating productions involving the genuine talent and versatility of the artists on stage. With this emphasis of authenticity, she presents realistic ideas along with surprises for the audience.

Parisian Sensations: Sense is the Essence

With its concept called “Parisian Sensations,” Cabaret Versatile creates a new kind of experience that was first presented during the show “Femmes!” It is a creation philosophy, which has influenced all of the concept and design of the show.

The concept immerses the audience in the universe that is Paris; its ladies, its ambiance, and its aesthetics. The sights, i.e. décor and ladies, the sounds (music), the taste of French delicacies, and all other senses unite to transport the audience to Europe and experience a myriad of unique moments full of surprises.

Since the nineteenth century, women have been the centerpiece of French Cabaret.

Remove the Doris girls from the Moulin Rouge or the feline dancers from the Crazy Horse and there is no cabaret. The formidable French Cancan is a great representation of the evolution of women in society. Les Demoiselles of Cabaret Versatile play a specific role and illustrate this diversity.

Each event is special, each show must be extraordinary.

As a professional cabaret, Cabaret Versatile offers a variety of options; one show will never be the same as another. Corporate, private or public performances are designed "à la carte" to perfectly fit with any occasion and environment. In addition, singers can handle hosting, and dancers can interact with the audience. Here are some examples of the main styles. Themes are infinite, so allow you to be seduced as you choose what you wish for.
