Abstract

The performances of Japanese dancer and actress Sada Yaco during 1900 in London and Paris established her as the best dancer from the Orient. Her European tour was full of hardship and distress but it helped establish her as the undisputed oriental star of the early 1900s. Interviews with Yaco and her husband were printed in newspapers such as Era and The Loyalist. Yaco used her role in theater to advocate women's rights.
