This photograph captures the essence of the Roaring Twenties in London, as renowned British silent movie star, Flora Le Breton (1895-1972), and her dance partner, Cecil Reuben, grace the stage at the Queens Hall Ballroom in 1923. The image, published in a popular world magazine, showcases the duo's electrifying performance during the Jazz Championships, an event that brought together the cream of the dance world. Flora Le Breton, a charismatic and talented actress, had made a name for herself in the British film industry, often described as the 'British Clara Bow.' Her magnetic screen presence and captivating stage presence made her a favorite among audiences. Here, off-screen, she demonstrates her exceptional dance skills, partnered by the accomplished Cecil Reuben. The pair's synchronization and energy are palpable, making for an unforgettable spectacle. The roof of Queens Hall Ballroom can be seen in the background, adorned with intricate Art Deco designs, a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the era. The photograph, taken in 1923, encapsulates the excitement and vibrancy of the Jazz Age in London, a time when dance floors came alive with the rhythm of jazz and the thrill of live performances. This image is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of 1920s London's dance scene and the lives of two of its most celebrated figures, Flora Le Breton and Cecil Reuben.
