EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and prepare to be dazzled by the electrifying energy of the Roaring Twenties as depicted in this scene from the iconic musical 'Lady be Good,' which graced the illustrious stage of London's Empire Theatre in 1926. The age of jazz and nightlife comes alive as the audience is transported to a world of high-spirited entertainment, where the Queen of Jazz herself, Paula Kelly (portrayed by the inimitable Gertrude Lawrence), captivates the crowd with her sultry vocals and mesmerizing stage presence. The dapper Fred Astaire, in his signature top hat and tails, partners with Kelly in a dazzling dance number that leaves the audience breathless. The glamour and sophistication of the era are on full display, with the opulently decorated Empire Theatre serving as the perfect backdrop for this unforgettable performance. The era of the 1920s was a time of rebellion, creativity, and self-expression, and this scene from 'Lady be Good' encapsulates the essence of that spirit, making it a must-see for anyone interested in the history of jazz, theatre, or the Roaring Twenties.
