Dancing.
Defense of a prostitute in the plot.
She is “a classic beauty,” and while “there have been other girls in tights, some of them very roguishly naughty, there have been none so fascinating as Selbini.”
“The girls are small, very agile, and pretty, and they turn cartwheels, do somersaults, high kicks and jumps, and pinwheels, as well as ballet steps, solo and ensemble numbers. They are very simply gowned in white, with pink tights, but the act does not need dressing to carry it.”
