Claire Luce and Julie Haydon Nathan sont toutes les deux d’ardentes lectrices de l’auteur Colette. C’est pourquoi elles ont pensé qu’il pourrait être intéressant d’enregistrer quelques unes de ses histoires les moins connues, à propos de la vie en coulisse des musics-halls français.Le music hall français est proche du vaudeville que ce soit par son origine, ses chanteurs, ses danseurs, ses acrobates ou autres. Colette avait une grande connaissance de ce milieu et a écrit à ce propos avec compassion et humour. L’expérience de Claire Luce et Julie Haydon Nathan à Broadway rend ces cinq histoires, qui se sont révélées autobiographiques, encore plus évocatrices pour l’auditeur.
