La Fée & Spiegelworld

La Fée Absinthe in New York with The World’s Most Beautiful Travelling Venue: Spiegelworld. Plus: our caption competition.

At the turn of the 19th Century, whilst absinthe was facing its demise though global prohibition, these iconic tents began travelling the world never failing to delight and seduce.

Last year the Spiegeltent wooed the New York crowd with their smash hit ‘Absinthe’ and are back this year with a new version of the critically acclaimed acro-burlesque variety show.

Absinthe will feature acts where seductive men and woman perform amazing feats of strength, balance, danger and unfathomable flexibility. La Fée are proud sponsors of this show which on its last outing received outstanding reviews!

“Imagine Cirque du Soleil as channelled through ‘Rocky Horror Picture Show’ and painted by George Grosz. A blend of skill, erotic innuendo and zaniness. The memorable moments make a jaded audience literally gasp”

— The New York Times.

“Just as intoxicating and addictive as the French liqueur for which it’s named.”

— TheaterMania

“An off-beat European circus on acid – Do not miss it.”

— Cindy Adams, NY Post 

The show ‘Absinthe’ will be running in New York from July 2nd to September 30th along with: ‘La Vie, the theatro-batic show featuring seven performers from Cirque de Soleil and beyond who mix life-threatening aerial acrobatics, wild characters and wicked music that ignite the intimate Spiegelworld stage.’

This summer they’re back and hotter than ever; the sizzling show ‘Absinthe’ makes its way back to the Big Apple for an exhilarating 3 month season. New exotic, intoxicating stunts in ‘Absinthe’ will take place at SPIEGELWORLD — a mesmerizing, world-class venue that’s sure to again be the most sought after hot spot in NYC this summer! Absinthe will feature new strange and sultry acts with deliciously seductive men and women who perform amazing feats of strength, balance, danger and unfathomable flexibility - this season’s ‘Absinthe’ is destined to take variety to sexy new heights.
