« We are delighted that the show is coming to this legendary Paris venue. Originally scheduled for three nights in a 150-seat venue in Sydney, The Empire Strips Back: The Burlesque Parody was such a huge success that an Australian tour was quickly organized. During its last tour in the USA, the show was then performed in prestigious venues such as Chinatown's Great Star Theater in San Francisco, the Wiltern in Los Angeles and the PlayStation Theater in New York. We hope that the French public will be there to finally join the dark side of the Force " said choreographer Lisa Toyer.
