"Bal Tabarin
(above) is not a person, but rather a place. It was a dancehall/cabaret located at Montmartre in Paris. It was owned by Pierre
Sandrini, who was the son of the renowned prima ballerina, Emma
Sandrini.
It's heyday was the 1930's when Erte (Romain de
Tirtoff) designed costumes for elaborate floorshows. Erte borrowed themes and highlighting personalities from history."
(1902) British actress (R) Promo from a play she was in entitled Lady Madcap (1905)
