John Jarrot was not the most famous of the Cabaret dancers in the 1910's but was very popular as a dancer through different reasons. First he partnered with many famous female dancers of the day such as Louise Alexander, Louise Greunning, Mae Murray and Ivy and Joan Sawyer.

    John's main partner in musical comedies was off and on for many years was Ivy Sawyer until she married Joseph Santley. They made their Broadway debut together in 1916 and appeared in the famous Irving Berlin "Music Box Revues" of the 1920s.

   Mr. Jarrot had an outgoing and fun personality and he loved to dance. In 1909, at Rey Jones Cafe, Jarrot and Louise Greunning introduced two dances that caught on with the public called the Turkey Trot and the Grizzly Bear dance.
