On this date, February 20th, 1918, Vaslav Nijinsky staged his new ballet, “THERE’S A SPOOK IN MY CURTAINS!”, the story of a sensitive young man who, having just gotten his driver’s license, backs his Model T over his grandmother and imagines her ghost has haunted his home. In the second act Nijinsky’s character loses his mind and tosses himself along with his dirty laundry into the newly invented washing machine for a pas de deux with a pair of flannel pajamas!…after a particularly terrifying spin cycle with the entire cast, the ballet ends with the young man in a final tableaux. He attaches drapery rings and hangs himself in a bay window… the audience fled the theatre screaming. Sadly, they were too frightened to stay and applaud… or ask for autographs.
