i love these girls so much! CANDY, JACKIE & HOLLY

Paul Ambrose, Agosto Machado, Douglas Fisher, Candy Darling and Jackie Curtis rehearsing scenes from “Vain Victory” at La Mama in April 1971, followed by a “fashion show” sequence shot on opening night!

Jackie Curtis sings “Blood Red Roses” at a La Mama reception in 1970 (that is Ellen Stewart just to the right of Jackie). The song was from the Broadway musical of the same name that closed after one performance! At the end when Curtis throws roses into the applauding crowd you can see artist Salvador Dali.
