EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a group of showgirls eagerly showing off their legs at an audition in 1871. The scene is filled with anticipation and excitement as the dancers await inspection by casting directors. In this historical moment, Shakespeare's words may spell ruin for some, but it is clear that these women understand that showcasing their legs could mean dividends in the competitive world of theatre.
The image provides a fascinating glimpse into the morality and values of the 1870s, where performers were judged not only on their talent but also on their appearance. The focus on legs as a key factor in auditions speaks to the societal expectations placed on women during this time period.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are reminded of the power dynamics at play in the entertainment industry and how even something as seemingly simple as showing one's legs can have significant implications for one's career prospects. The determination and ambition displayed by these showgirls serve as a testament to their dedication to their craft and willingness to do whatever it takes to succeed.
Overall, this print is a striking reminder of the complexities of auditioning and performing during the Victorian era, where appearances mattered just as much as talent.
