Un Soir de Folie
EDITORS COMMENTS
(A Night of Madness) was a spectacular revue production staged at the legendary Folies Bergère in Paris during the Roaring Twenties. This photograph captures the prologue of the show, featuring three exquisite acts that graced the stage in 1925. At the top of the image, the audience is treated to the mesmerizing prologue of "Un Soir de Folie." The performers, bathed in the soft glow of the stage lights, are frozen in a moment of pure theatrical magic. The setting is the opulent Folies Bergère hall, adorned with Art Deco splendor, creating an atmosphere of elegance and excitement. From left to right, the first act is "La Pantomime Anglais," a British pantomime troupe that brought the art of physical comedy and dance to the Parisian stage. Their lively and energetic performances were a favorite among the audience, showcasing their exceptional skill and agility. Next, we have "L'Operetta Viennoise," an operetta ensemble hailing from Vienna, Austria. Their enchanting melodies and captivating performances were a testament to the rich musical heritage of the Austrian capital. The operetta's lighthearted and romantic nature was a perfect complement to the overall theme of "Un Soir de Folie." Lastly, we have "La Zarzuela Espagnole," a Spanish musical theater company. Their performances blended music, dance, and drama, showcasing the vibrant and passionate spirit of Spain. The energy and enthusiasm of the Spanish performers was infectious, leaving the audience in awe and delight. This photograph is a snapshot of a bygone era, capturing the essence of the Roaring Twenties and the magical world of the Folies Bergère. The fusion of various artistic styles and influences created a unique and unforgettable theatrical experience that continues to captivate audiences even today.
