EDITORS COMMENTS
1913: The Tango Tea Craze at the Queens Theatre, London This photograph captures the essence of an extraordinary event that took place at the Queens Theatre in London during the year 1913. The image showcases M. Clayton and Mlle. Marquis, two dancers gracefully executing the latest dance craze to sweep the nation - the Tango. However, this was no ordinary tango performance. The theatre stalls had been removed, making way for tables and chairs, transforming the space into an elegant setting for afternoon tea. The tango, a Latin dance originating from Argentina, had become the new sensation of the year. The dance, characterized by its passionate and sensual movements, had captured the hearts and minds of the fashionable elite. The Queens Theatre, known for its innovative approach to entertainment, decided to give the tango a novel spin by combining it with the quintessentially British tradition of afternoon tea. As the dancers glide across the floor, their movements perfectly in sync, the music provided by the band situated on stage (out of sight) sets the rhythm for the occasion. The atmosphere is lively and festive, with the audience, dressed in the latest fashions of the time, watching intently. After the dance performance, a dress parade was given, allowing the guests to show off their stylish attire. This photograph serves as a testament to the unique blend of fashion, leisure, and entertainment that defined the early 20th century. The tango tea at the Queens Theatre was more than just a dance event; it was a social occasion where people came together to experience the thrill of the new craze while enjoying a refined afternoon tea. The image encapsulates the spirit of the era, a time when the traditional and the avant-garde came together to create unforgettable moments.
