Story, stars and rhinestones: The theater

Since its beginnings at the Moulin Rouge, artists who are extremely talented have performed on the legendary stage. First of all, Goulue, the muse of Toulouse-Lautrec, who together with her acolyte Valentin-le-Désossé sparked so many conversations on the subject, revolutionized the famous and unique French Cancan.

The ever larger and more spectacular shows eventually open up a new genre of their own. Thus, the Moulin Rouge became the cradle of music hall make.

Stars who performed at the Moulin Rouge

Not to mention all the famous artists who performed at the Moulin Rouge, such as:

• Charles Trenet
• Dean Martin
• Edith Piaf
• Ella Fiztgerald
• Elton John
• Frank Martin
• Frank Sinatra
• Jean Gabin
• Line Renaud
• Ray Charles
• Yves Montand

After well over 100 years of a sensational show program, France’s greatest cabaret continues to inspire dreams in its latest program “Féerie”!

Two performances per evening, sixty artists on stage, magnificent decorations by exceptional craftsmen, original music, two hours of a wonderful mix of danced tables and surprising numbers, not forgetting the most characteristic dance of the Moulin Rouge, the French Cancan!

The Moulin Rouge is a dream world every night.

1.001 Show costumes in theater

The theater is particularly interested in preserving its unique expertise in the manufacture of show and music hall costumes. Recently, the company has purchased several of these workshops: Maison February for feathers, Maison Clairvoy for shoes, and Atelier Valentin for embroidery.

Every evening and every night, from more than 1,000 costumes, with feathers, zircons and sequins is invented, made with precision by our artisans.

A true French symbol, the Moulin Rouge will continue to shine throughout the world and become a must-see in Paris once again. At the foot of the Montmartre hill, the wings of the Moulin (mill) have been spinning for over 100 years and will continue to spin and make us dream.

Space travel agency? Agency? Planner?

FIV: Thank you very much for taking the time for this interview. First of all, the question, what exactly do they call you guys, “space agency”? “Space travel agency”?

Exactly! Basically, we are a travel agency for tourism, only space tourism. Specializing in current and future offerings that deal with travel beyond the usual flight zones of short and long range aircraft. This includes orbital flights and flights that go even higher. Coming soon, even the first space hotels are planned, by 2027 for example.

Pictures are worth 1,000 words, especially this first flight by Richard Branson with Virgin Galactic.

Foundation and idea

FIV: That all sounds very interesting! But how did you come up with an idea like this, to open a travel agency for space tourism?

In fact, a podcast gave me the idea. Especially in the evenings, I love listening to podcasts about physics. There is more and more talk about space tourism and the first pioneers of private space travel, such as Elon Musk with SpaceX, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos with Blue Origin or Richard Branson Virgin Galactic.

Since we usually work a lot with luxury real estate, and therefore also with people who might have the necessary reserves and the dream to be in space one day, the connection was there quickly and so we decided to found the first, German space agency for tourism.

How much does a flight into space cost?

FIV: Who is currently the absolute pioneer when it comes to space tourism? How much does it cost to travel to space?

Currently Virgin Galactic is at the top when it comes to simple space tourism. SpaceX is currently still very much in the commercial sector, i.e. cooperation with companies and states. However, the launch of a first, privately booked Dragon 2 capsule is currently being planned here as well. Booked by an American billionaire who, together with two friends and a pediatrician, is launching into space for a good cause. A single seat costs 57 million.

With Virgin Galactic the list places of the time are already clearly more favorable, if one is far in the back in the waiting list, the prices are partial already with 200,000 $.

With Virgin Galactic the list places of the time are already clearly more favorable, if one is far in the back in the waiting list, the prices are partial already with $ 250,000.

• Blue Origin (seat) about $ 200,000 to $ 250,000
• Virgin Galactic (seat) round about $ 250.000 to $ 400.000

More specific are:

• Sierra Nevada Corporation, no price yet
• SpaceX (whole capsule) speculated at $ 55.000.000

SpaceX, Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic

FIV: If you could recommend three YouTube videos that teach us about space tourism, what would they be?

Yeah sure, absolutely! Maybe to the 3 current providers one each.

Elon Musk with SpaceX

Here you can see the latest generation of the Starship (SN15) from SpaceX. The special, launch and cargo with a vehicle.

Elon Musk himself, a multi-billionaire and runway nerd:

Jeff Bezos with Blue Origin

“New Shepard” is the name of the Jeff Bezos / Blue Origin model.

Richard Branson with Virgin Galactic

This video is practically contemporary history. The first crew of a private space flight with Virgin Galactic.

The message from Richard Branson

I was once a child with a dream looking up to the stars. Now I’m an adult in a spaceship looking down to our beautiful Earth. To the next generation of dreamers: if we can do this, just imagine what you can do. – Richard Branson

Flight time: 2 hours incl. weightlessness

Weightless: flights, hotels … what is possible?

FIV: How can you imagine life in space? Let’s say I book a seat on a flight or in a hotel today, am I really weightless?

That’s what it’s all about, experiencing weightlessness! A feeling that only a handful of people have had so far. In addition, you see the earth from above for the first time, its fragility, but also the very thin blue atmosphere that surrounds us.

As soon as you reach orbit, weightlessness begins. How future hotels could look, can not be said at the moment. The previously discussed plan in 2027 envisages 301 hotel rooms, gym and cinema, all of which of course still sounds very unrealistic! It will probably be small capsules that don’t offer a lot of open space, but there is one big advantage for space tourists in this aspect – time. After all, previous flights usually last only a few hours, and the stays are scheduled for a long time.

FIV: Thank you for answering these initial questions! We will meet again soon to learn even more about the progress in space tourism.
