EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment from James Klein's groundbreaking revue, "Tausend Nackte Frauen" (A Thousand Naked Women), which premiered at the Komische Oper in Berlin in 1928. The image showcases the chorus line, a dazzling assembly of women in various stages of undress, their bodies adorned with feathers, beads, and sequins, ready to enchant the audience with their sultry moves. The jazz age was in full swing in the 1920s, and Berlin was at the heart of this cultural revolution, with its vibrant nightlife and avant-garde entertainment. The revue, which ran for over 1,000 performances, was a sensation, pushing the boundaries of what was considered acceptable in public entertainment. The women on stage were bold and unapologetic, challenging the social norms of the time. The production was a testament to the liberating spirit of the era, where women's bodies were celebrated and sexuality was embraced. The photograph, taken during a performance, freezes a fleeting moment in time, capturing the energy and excitement of the production. The women in the chorus line, with their confident and playful expressions, embody the spirit of the Roaring Twenties and the liberation that came with it. The photograph is a window into the past, offering a glimpse into a time when the rules were broken, and the boundaries were pushed, all in the name of entertainment.
