EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment of intense focus and collaboration during a rehearsal for the 1927 production of "Massachusetts Girls," a number in the iconic Showgirls revue. The image, sourced from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a rare glimpse into the behind-the-scenes world of early 20th century American entertainment. The photograph features a group of showgirls, their faces serious and determined as they prepare for their performance. Each woman is dressed in an ornate, sequined costume, their hair styled in elaborate waves and curls. They stand in a semi-circle, their arms linked as they practice the intricate choreography of the number. The setting of the rehearsal space is equally intriguing. The room is filled with the warm glow of stage lights, casting long shadows on the walls. Prop boxes and costumes are scattered about, evidence of the production's meticulous planning and attention to detail. The history of the Showgirls revue is rich and fascinating. Originating in the late 1800s, these elaborate productions showcased chorus lines of beautiful women performing elaborate dance numbers. The shows were known for their glamour, spectacle, and often scandalous content. This photograph, taken during the rehearsal for "Massachusetts Girls," offers a window into the dedication and hard work that went into creating these productions. It also serves as a reminder of the important role that women played in early 20th century entertainment, both on and off the stage. The image is a testament to the enduring allure of the Showgirls revue and the rich history of American entertainment. It is a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs, offering a unique perspective on a bygone era.
