EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the allure and excitement of the Roaring Twenties as embodied by acrobatic dancing sensations, Simone Roseray and Capella. The image, taken in 1924 during their successful run at the renowned Concert Mayol in Paris, showcases the duo in the height of their artistic prowess. With grace and agility, they defy gravity in a mesmerizing display of acrobatics and dance. Having already wowed audiences in Paris, Roseray and Capella made their way to Berlin, where they graced the stage of the fashionable Embassy Club. Their act, a daring blend of athleticism and artistry, quickly became a sensation in the vibrant nightlife scene of the German capital. However, their unconventional costumes drew the attention of the authorities, leading to a ban on their performances until they complied with more modest attire. Despite the setback, the duo's reputation continued to grow, and they remained a fixture of the European cabaret scene for years to come. This photograph serves as a testament to their undeniable talent and the irresistible allure of the 1920s, an era of innovation, creativity, and unforgettable entertainment.
