EDITORS COMMENTS
Behind the Scenes at Theatre de L'Abri, Paris, France: A Glimpse into the Erotic World of Le Ballet des Nymphes (circa 1910s) Step into the captivating world of Parisian cabaret culture with this enchanting behind-the-scenes photograph from the Theatre de L'Abri. This image offers a rare glimpse into the erotic revue performed by the renowned troupe, Le Ballet des Nymphes, featuring the principal dancer Louis Espinoza. The photograph captures the dancers in their preparatory poses, embodying the essence of balletic grace and sensuality. Espinoza, with his toned physique and confident expression, holds the attention of the audience even before taking the stage. The other dancers, adorned in large, semi-transparent panties and big pants, strike provocative and alluring poses, their bare breasts subtly peeking out from beneath their costumes. The Theatre de L'Abri, known for its kitschy and provocative shows, was a popular destination for Parisians seeking an escape from the mundane. The revue, featuring the nymphs or nymphes, was a celebration of the female form and the power of seduction. This photograph, with its historical significance and intriguing subject matter, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Parisian cabaret and the enduring allure of the erotic revue. The intriguing scene unfolds in the coulisses or backstage area of the theatre, where the dancers prepare for their performances. The large shapes and postures of the dancers, combined with the dimly lit setting, create an atmosphere of anticipation and excitement. This photograph not only captures the essence of the performance but also offers a glimpse into the world of the dancers, their preparations, and the unique energy that exists backstage.
