 INSPIRATION 灵感 

What's a "VEDETTE"? 什么是"VEDETTE"?

A vedette is the main female artist of a cabaret / revue show, often specializing in burlesque.  Generally a vedette is a woman with physical presence, personality and charisma that captivates the public. In addition to their highlight act (usually solo), they would often appear in group dances, surrounded by starlets and showgirls. One of the most known burlesque vedettes today is Dita Von Teese. 

Vedette主要是女性歌舞表演艺术家，通常专门从事滑稽舞表演。 一般来说，女性运用舞蹈展现身体，个性和魅力从而吸引观众。 除了独自表演之外，他们还经常出现在群舞中，被众多舞者包围。 现今，最为著名的滑稽表演者之一是Dita Von Teese。

冉冉升起的滑稽剧新星“曼哈顿小姐Miss Scarlet Manhattan”将让所有粉丝沉迷于令人眼花缭乱的音乐电影“芝加哥”。您不仅可以看到她的“Roxie”版本，还可以看到有史以来最受欢迎的“爵士春秋All That Jazz”！

The rising star of Chinese burlesque Miss Scarlet Manhattan will indulge all the fans of “Chicago” with her new dazzling act inspired by that musical and film. Not only will you get to see her version of “Roxie”, but also the all-time favorite “All That Jazz”!  

每场卡巴莱都必须拥有一个充满异国情调的舞蹈表演，Liwa la Fleur华丽的东方羽毛扇舞，由莎莉兰德和诺埃尔玩具闻名的经典表演而闻名。表演结合了Anna May Wong的老式电影美学，以及30年代中国滑稽表演者和旧金山“紫禁城”夜总会的歌舞女郎。

Every cabaret show has to have an exotic dance act, and Miss Liwa la Fleur has just what it takes – a gorgeous oriental feather fan dance, the classic act made famous by Sally Rand and Noel Toy. This act combined aesthetics of Anna May Wong’s vintage films, and 1930s Chinese burlesque performers and showgirls of the “Forbidden City” nightclub in San Francisco.  

如果没有踢踏舞，20世纪30年代的表演和电影将不会完整。按照这一传统，Trixie Royale为玛琳•黛德丽（Marlene Dietrich），约瑟芬•贝克（Josephine Baker）和反对当时社会形态在舞台上穿着男装的女演员们准备了一个特别的敬意。舞蹈受“维多利亚/维多利亚”电影启发，趣味横生的表演引领了该剧的结局。

A 1930s show or film would not be complete without a tap dance piece. Following the tradition, Miss Trixie Royale has prepared a special tribute act to Marlene Dietrich, Josephine Baker and other female performers who dressed in men’s attire on stage, against the society norms of the time. This playful act leads the finale of the show, inspired by the main dance performance in the film “Victor / Victoria”.
