EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the vibrant world of the Ambassadors Theatre-Restaurant in 1926, as depicted in this stunning sketch by Hemjic. The interior of the Parisian establishment comes alive with the progress of the Blackbirds show, a groundbreaking jazz production that captivated audiences during the Roaring Twenties. At the heart of the action is the inimitable Florence Mills, a trailblazing performer who defied racial and gender stereotypes as she dazzled audiences with her talent and charisma. Here, she is seen in the role of an en garçon, adding an extra layer of surprise and intrigue to the evening's entertainment. The Art Deco-inspired hall is filled with an air of excitement and sophistication, as patrons enjoy their meals and take in the lively cabaret-style show. The ambiance is one of pure joy and escapism, transporting guests to a world of music, dance, and laughter. Hemjic's illustration beautifully captures the essence of the era, with its bold lines, rich colors, and intricate details. The sketch invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and sensations of a night out at the Ambassadors Theatre-Restaurant, making it a true treasure for anyone interested in the history of jazz, nightlife, and entertainment during the 1920s.
