Description:
Comedian and actor Roy Hudd has had a lifelong affair with show business and has here written the most complete Who's Who of British Variety Theatre ever published. As a paid performer, he just caught the tail end of this rich and colorful entertainment before it was ousted in many people's lives by television. In this marvellous book Roy Hudd recounts virtually every act he saw in the Variety Theatre, from the obscure and unknown, to the acts that emerged from it to remain with audiences for decades, inluding Harry Secombe, Peter Sellers, Spike Milligan, Norman Wisdom and Cliff Richard. This is an invaluable guide to the world of Variety Theatre.
