EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the Jazz Age Club Collection, The Rocky Twins, Dwight and Clarence DeMoss, are seen dressed in drag as the renowned Dolly Sisters, Paris. The image captures the brothers in the late 1920s, a time when cross-dressing was a common spectacle in vaudeville and music hall entertainment. The Dolly Sisters, real-life showgirls Rose and Helen Lenore Strunsky, were a popular act during the 1920s and early 1930s. Known for their double act, they gained fame for their singing, dancing, and comedic performances. The Rocky Twins, inspired by the Dolly Sisters' success, sought to replicate their act in drag, hoping to bring a touch of glamour and excitement to their own performances. The brothers' drag costumes in this photograph are meticulously detailed, with intricate beading, feathers, and sequins adorning their outfits. Their makeup is carefully applied, with bold eyeshadow and red lips that mimic the Dolly Sisters' iconic look. The brothers' expressions are playful and confident, showcasing their commitment to their performance. The photograph was taken in a dimly lit music hall, with a grand piano and microphone in the background, adding to the sense of authenticity and nostalgia. The brothers' poses suggest a moment of rest between performances, allowing the audience to appreciate their elaborate costumes and the skill that went into creating them. The late 1920s were a time of experimentation and self-expression, and this photograph captures the essence of that era. The Rocky Twins' drag performance as the Dolly Sisters reflects the fluidity of gender roles and the acceptance of cross-dressing as a form of entertainment during this time. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the Jazz Age and the world of vaudeville and music hall entertainment.
