EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic Nellie Farren, a renowned burlesque entertainer, in the midst of her performance with Messrs. Terry and Royce. Dressed in a dapper suit and cross-dressing as a boy, Nellie's androgynous appearance and playful expression add to the allure of this intriguing scene. The pink backdrop and pale lighting further accentuate the ethereal quality of the moment. Born Ellen Farren in 1848, Nellie was a trailblazing performer who gained notoriety for her unique ability to embody various male roles in her acts. Her talent and charisma drew large crowds to the burlesque stages of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In this image, Nellie's artistry is on full display as she interacts with her fellow performers, Messrs. Terry and Royce. The trio's dynamic energy and theatricality are palpable, making for an unforgettable performance. This photograph is a testament to Nellie Farren's groundbreaking career in burlesque and her ability to captivate audiences with her skillful portrayal of boys' roles. The image, taken around 1904, remains a fascinating glimpse into the world of burlesque entertainment during this era.
