Dancers Dolly Flappers Hippodrome Jenny Rosie Sisters Cabaret
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Dolly Sisters, Rosie and Jenny, in their iconic performance of 'Jig Saw' at the London Hippodrome in 1920. The sisters, known for their vivacious energy and jazz-infused dance routines, were pioneers of the cabaret scene during the Roaring Twenties. The Dolly Sisters, dressed in their flapper best, radiate youth and exuberance as they gracefully maneuver the intricate jigsaw puzzle-like stage set. The sisters' youthful age, estimated to be around 20-25 years old, added to their allure and made them a favorite among the young, trend-conscious crowds of the time. The London Hippodrome, a historic theatre located in Leicester Square, was the place to be for entertainment during the 1920s. The theatre's grand stage, adorned with opulent decor and state-of-the-art technology, provided the perfect backdrop for the Dolly Sisters' high-energy performances. 'Jig Saw' was just one of many acts that made up the sisters' repertoire, which included a mix of jazz dance numbers, comedy skits, and vocal performances. Their unique blend of talent and charisma made them a must-see act for audiences in London and beyond. This photograph is a glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the history of cabaret and the 1920s entertainment scene. The Dolly Sisters' infectious energy and innovative performances continue to inspire and captivate audiences even today.
