Dan Leno was Britain's greatest ever Music Hall star. One of the first stand-up comics and a much-loved pantomime dame with a strong line in character-based comedy, he become the comedy genius of his age. He laid the foundations for British comedy, blazing a trail before Ronnie Barker's monologues, Les Dawson's wordplays, David Walliams' cross-dressing, Michael Flattley's feet of flame or even Chaplin's struggling little tramp. With live musical accompaniment, this romp through entertainment history brings the nineteenth century showman to life.
