Description

The Victorian music hall: a hotbed of scandal and home of betrayal, discrimination, sexual exploitation, domestic violence and press intrusion. They don’t seem such “good old days” now, do they? Nelly Power lived a life that was its own Victorian melodrama. She was a trailblazer for women’s rights, darling of the gossip columns and headliner at all the major theatres – until her most famous song was stolen by the young Marie Lloyd. This is her story; It’s a bit Ripper Street and a bit Eastenders, with songs.

A humorous, joyful, yet poignant foray into the age of music-hall and its stars. Convincing acting and beautiful singing with skilful keyboard accompaniment.
