About the Group

Greetings and welcome to Classic Cancan 2! This is a continuation of Classic Cancan (https://classiccancan.blogspot.com/), which has reached capacity for new photos, but which is still active. Please make all new posts here rather than at Classic Cancan. The main discussion site, where most people post, is CancanGroup.io (https://groups.io/g/CancanGroup). Please go there for daily text postings. These are sites for the discussion and appreciation of the Cancan in all its forms, from its genesis in Paris during La Belle Epoche, to its appearance in London, San Francisco and The Old West. Owned and operated by the online cancan community, Classic Cancan 2 is open to everybody with a genuine interest in the World's Greatest Dance. Please note, however, that Classic Cancan 2 is a G-Rated group, so please don't post anything objectionable. While the content of this site may be described as slightly 'risque,' this is not an adult community in any sense of the word, and anything deemed inappropriate will be deleted immediately.

Liebe und Trompetenblasen - Spielfilm - Marianne Koch/Hans Holt - 1953 - FHD

An undiscovered cancan gem in black and white from Germany

The cancan starts about 9:01. A second session starts at 48:50.

Description from You Tube:

" Soldiers Peter and Nicky vie for the favor of the court actress, Ninon. However, their adoration clashes with their military duties, and they are placed under house arrest. Nevertheless, they go to the theater to watch Ninon perform. Inevitably, the two are caught and make their escape.

The world premiere took place on January 20, 1954, in Munich; the Berlin premiere followed on June 11 of the same year."

The lead cancan dancer is Nadja Tiller.
