EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, American dancer Billy Shaw, also known as Billie Shaw, mesmerizes the fashionable crowd at Chez Nous cabaret, located in the Hotel Excelsior on the Lido in Venice during the roaring 1920s. The year was 1927, and the era of jazz and high society was in full swing. Billy Shaw was a renowned dancer, known for his eccentric, acrobatic, and novelty performances that left audiences in awe. In this image, he is seen mid-performance, his body contorted in a graceful yet daring pose. His expressive face and intense gaze add to the allure and excitement of the moment. The setting of Chez Nous cabaret at the Hotel Excelsior on the Lido in Venice was the perfect backdrop for such an electrifying performance. The Lido was a popular resort destination for the wealthy and fashionable, and the cabaret was a must-visit attraction. The elegant decor of the cabaret, with its Art Deco influences and opulent furnishings, added to the glamour and sophistication of the evening. Joining Billy Shaw on stage was Bobby Dupree, another talented performer who added to the excitement of the night with his own unique acts. Together, they put on a show that was unforgettable, leaving the audience wanting more. This photograph captures a moment in time, transporting us back to the fashionable and jazz-filled era of the 1920s, where Billy Shaw and Bobby Dupree dazzled audiences at Chez Nous cabaret in Venice.
