Ca Cest Paris
EDITORS COMMENTS
was a lavish and exciting production staged at the Prince of Wales Theatre in London, fondly referred to as "London's Folies Bergere," in 1933. This programme cover, an exquisite illustration by the renowned artist Louis Curti, perfectly encapsulates the essence of the show. The vibrant image transports us back to the Roaring Twenties and the 1930s, an era of decadence, glamour, and jazz. The illustration features a captivating scene of Parisian life, with a sultry chorus girl in a dazzling feather headdress and sequined costume, surrounded by a sea of revellers. The background is adorned with the iconic Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe, symbolizing the romantic and enchanting city of Paris. The use of bold colours and Art Deco design elements adds to the allure and sophistication of the image. Jacques Charles, the producer of "Ca Cest Paris," spared no expense in creating an authentic Parisian experience for London audiences. The show was a huge success, running for over 300 performances and featuring a cast of over 100 performers. The production included elaborate costumes, stunning sets, and a live orchestra, making it a must-see event for theatre-goers in the 1930s. This programme cover is a testament to the extravagance and excitement of the "Ca Cest Paris" production and the golden age of live entertainment. Louis Curti's illustration continues to captivate and inspire, offering a glimpse into the glamour and allure of Parisian life during the Jazz Age.
