One of the stops on my (very busy) time travel machine trip will be to Ciro’s on the Sunset Strip. Hollywood in its golden-era heyday was liberally sprinkled nightclubs. From 1940 to 1957, one of the most popular with the studio crowd was Ciro’s at 8433 Sunset Blvd on the Sunset Strip. It’s not that hard to find photos of the club’s exterior, but interior photos are harder to come by, mainly because the famous faces that filled it preferred to not be photographed during their off hours. So this photo is a rare chance to see what Ciro’s stage looked like. The room was easy to reconfigure as needed but who wants to join me at that four-top right in front?
