Cecile Sorel debuts at the Casino de Paris in the role of Célimène in “Vive Paris." Art by Etianne Drian. Ad in “Femina,” December, 1933

Cécile Sorel (1873-1966), or the Comtesse de Ségur by marriage, was a French comic actress who enjoyed great popularity and was known for her extravagant costumes.

 

The Casino de Paris is one of the well-known music halls of Paris, with a history dating back to the 18th century. Contrary to what the name might suggest, it is a performance venue, not a gambling house.
