ШОУ-БАЛЕТ "JS"

 

ШОУ-БАЛЕТ JS (for Jazzy Show) of Yekaterinburg, Russia, performs their cancan in typical Russian split-skirt style costumes.  The black tights certainly don't do much for the appeal of their costumes, but I liked the striking opening shot of their routine (see the first and last photos above and the video).

 

Their vk.com site has numerous cancan photos of which the above are just a sampling.  See their sites at:

Knicker Kickers

The Knicker Kickers is a new cancan troupe from Toronto, and lives up to their name in the above photos.  They also appear with cancan skirts as well, as the above photo of Saint Stella, as well as those from a couple of days ago, indicate.  Hopefully, that will be a trend.
