Ep 143: Reunited After 62 Years

Elizabeth Dale Phillips is the author or the book Have Chignon Will Travel and has been a guest on Bluebells Forever Podcast several times. Elizabeth and I met up in Paris in July to grieve and honor the closing of the Lido. While there, Elizabeth met up with her friend Jackie Frediani who she toured Italy with in the 60’s as Bluebells. Jackie was surprised to find she was in Elizabeth’s book. After 62 years, they picked right back up as friends.

Om Podcasten

Join Sheri Lewis as she interviews Bluebell dancers past and present. Bluebell dancers are an elite cast of dancers, known for their statuesque presence, beauty and strong dance technique. Margaret Kelly, aka Miss Bluebell, created her group of iconic dances in the 1930’s for their first performance Follies Bergere. From there, she expanded her shows to the Lido de Paris and the Moulin Rouge. Through the decades Miss Bluebell Continued to offer incredible opportunities for dancers in Las Vegas, Monte Carlo, Hong Kong, Reno and touring shows. The days of glamour and travel for dancers have mostly faded away with the exception of the Lido de Paris which still pridefully showcases the Bluebell dancers and the history of The showgirl.
