The
Devereaux Sisters™
On
Friday night, the place to be in Paris was Chez Maurice
with the cool jazz offerings of the Sisters Devereaux
to soothe your soul and jazz your feet... What made
Reneé and Louise Devereaux the toast of Paris was an
innate charm mixed with blue blood connections; they
could capture Chez Maurice’s audience not only with
their crystalline voices, but also with their tantalizing
wit and style. As an act, the Sisters Devereaux enthralled
audiences with Reneé’s dusky voice and flirty, yet demure
eye contact with every audience member; contrasted by
Louise’s crystalline tones and flamboyant, yet charming
dance steps. The combined effect was simply compelling
to behold. While abroad in America, the cool new jazz
sounds mesmerized the sisters, and they soon paired
their love of singing to this wild new rhythm. Ushering
them into a new world of music and mischief was Opaline,
the dusky-voiced chanteuse and famed dancer; it became
no surprise that Opaline would join them in Paris at
Chez Maurice to pack houses every performance! Of course,
the sisters’ widowed mother, Madame Gabrielle Devereaux,
did not approve of her daughters’ antics, which were
constantly being brought to her attention under the
scornful eye of Mme. Devereaux’s Aunt Maryvonne. Little
did they know a scandal was unraveling at the jealous
hands of rival competitor, Le Scandale Rouge, and its
owner, Bijou Petit, to fan the flames of discord amongst
the Montmartre nightlife and its denizens. Yet through
the tirades of common born Bijou’s avarice and the staunch
reproving love of their mother, Reneé and Louise would
not let society define who they were; their escapades
amongst the 1920s French artists’ community would be
legend. Moreover, one would be captured by the eye and
heart of the young American expatriate, George Parker
– a handsome dandy and journalist on the scene, who
would find himself having a hard time choosing between
the two sisters’ affections. Robert Tonner is proud
to present The Devereaux Sisters™ Collection of dolls,
outfits, accessories...and cool cup of hot jazz...
