EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the magic and charm of the legendary dance duo, Fred and Adele Astaire, during their performance at the Shaftesbury Theatre in London in 1923. The brother-sister team, who began dancing together as children, are seen here at the height of their success in the world of entertainment. Fred Astaire, born Frederick Austerlitz, was an American dancer and actor, known for his grace, elegance, and innovative dance moves. His elder sister, Adele Astaire, was an equally talented dancer and performer, who retired from dance in 1932 to marry Lord Charles Spencer Cavendish, the second son of the 9th Duke of Devonshire. The siblings' dynamic partnership brought them international fame and cemented their place in dance history. This image, taken during their appearance in the musical "Stop Flirting," is a testament to their unparalleled chemistry and the timeless allure of their performances. The twenties were a golden era for the Astaires, and this photograph is an iconic representation of their enduring legacy as dance icons and sibling stars.
