In The Radio City Rockettes: A Dance through Time, peek backstage and get a glimpse of the rich and storied history of this famed dance troupe. The lushly beautiful portraits of photographer James Porto capture the glamour and beauty of the dancers, as well as their magnificent, show-stopping costumes-created by some of the greatest designers of the day, including Bob Mackie, Erté (father of the Art Deco design movement), and Vincente Minnelli.
The white marabou hats, sparkling red sequins, top hats and tails, the instantly-recognizable "wooden soldiers" outfits, and dozens more are all brought to vivid life. Photographs from Radio City's vast archives provide a special look at the Rockettes' landmark home, Radio City Music Hall, allow the elegance and grandeur of Donald Deskey's interior design to leap off the page.
With The Radio City Rockettes: A Dance through Time, the beauty, talent, and spirit of the Radio City Rockettes is yours in a beautiful keepsake, for you to treasure or to share with someone special. |
