Synopsis "Stories I Can't Tell: An Illustrated Confessional"

What secrets lurk in her battered trunk of theatrical souvenirs?We're on the eve of the Second World War but you're snug in a room with Maggie King as she prepares a celebrity memoir. From her theatrical trunk she'll show you sketches from her shows, along with programmes, handbills, letters and photos, both from her own career and that of her parents - Albert and Annie King ('the Royal Family' of Music Hall and Variety). She'll share with you the ups and downs of her rackety life, the hits and flops, the romance and tragedy, the men who mattered and the one who caused the scandal that blighted her career.Brought on stage as a babe-in-arms, she went on to become a child performer, pierrot, actress, soubrette and singer. Though she made her first gramophone records in the early years of pre-electric acoustic 78 rpm records (before microphones!) she found more fame in the Twenties and Thirties as a crooner with Britain's top dance bands. Then came the scandal.As she shares her vivid memories she tells what really happened, as opposed to what you'd find in a show-biz biography. These, then, are the stories she can't tell.Read - and enjoy the pictures too!
