Can-Can is a lively, high-energy dance that originated in France in the 19th century. It involves high kicks, splits, and other acrobatic maneuvers performed by a line of dancers.
In the operetta "Orpheus in the Underworld," composed by Jacques Offenbach in 1858, the Can-Can was featured in Act 2 as a lively dance performed by the chorus of infernal spirits in Hell. The dance was introduced in a scandalous way, with the dancers lifting their skirts and flashing their legs, which caused outrage among the conservative audience of the time.
The Can-Can became popular across Europe and America and has since been adapted and performed in various forms, including in the famous Moulin Rouge cabaret in Paris. Today, it is still considered a symbol of French culture and is frequently performed in shows and musicals.
