EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic and electrifying performance of the Rocky Twins, Dolly and Ella, as they graced the stage of Les Ailes de Paris at the Casino in Paris during the roaring twenties. Dressed in dazzling costumes and heavy makeup, the sisters defied gender norms and captivated audiences with their renditions of jazz standards and vaudeville acts. The Rocky Twins, born in the United States but gained fame in Europe, were a sensation in the Parisian nightlife scene during the 1920s. Their act, which often incorporated elements of drag and camp, challenged societal expectations and paved the way for future queer performers. At the height of their popularity, the sisters performed regularly at Les Ailes de Paris, a popular cabaret and music hall located in the heart of Paris. The Casino, known for its lavish productions and diverse acts, provided the perfect platform for the Rocky Twins to showcase their unique talents and captivate audiences with their charisma and energy. This photograph, taken in 1927, captures the sisters in their prime, exuding confidence and allure as they perform for an enthralled audience. The image is a testament to the rich history of jazz music and queer culture in the 1920s, and serves as a reminder of the groundbreaking contributions of the Rocky Twins and other performers who defied societal norms and paved the way for future generations of artists. The 1920s were a time of great social and cultural change, and the Rocky Twins' performances at Les Ailes de Paris were a reflection of the era's spirit of rebellion and experimentation. This photograph is not only a fascinating glimpse into the past, but also a reminder of the enduring power of art and performance to challenge conventions and inspire change.
