The original "greatest showman" was not P.T. Barnum, it was a chap from Newcastle Under Lyme in Staffordshire, who went by the name Philip Astley.  Astley was a soldier and talented equestrian who went on to invent what we now recognise as the modern day circus.  His story is one of the many that prove that truth is stranger (certainly more remarkable) than fiction.

Andrew Van Buren hails from the world of circus and a very theatrical family.  He's a true all round entertainer and is passionate about both his hometown of Newcastle Under Lyme and the heritage of his industry.  So who better to spearhead the "Philip Astley Project", the initiative that is helping Astley do for Newcastle what Shakespeare did for Stratford...?

Andrew talks to us about Astley's history, the beginnings of the van Buren family's showbusiness life and the incredible journey he's taken to get Astley recognised - and to get Newcastle back on the map.

And if that's not enough, Chris Barltrop, actor and ringmaster extraoirdinaire gives us a taster of his performance as "The Audacious Mr Astley"

A short message to reassure our listeners that you're not abandoned!

We've had a slight delay but Series Two will be up and running soon.

In the meantime, check out the show notes for all of Series One , which  have been updated and do use this downtime to catch up on any episodes you've missed. 

If you want to revisit Episodes 3 and 4 (the ones that missed out on the all singing all dancing technology when we first broadcast)  please do.  They are both very popular episodes:  No. 3  (new version number 11) is Paterson Joseph talking about Charles Ignatius Sancho and No . 4 (new version number 12)  is Alison Young talking about Daisy Dormer.  And you can now hear them without the added interest of what sounded like (but wasn't) a washing machine in the background.

We've been having a wonderful time producing these podcasts and feedback has been excellent.  It seems that there are an awful lot of people out there with an interest in social history and forgotten heroes.  So thank you for staying with us.

Alison Young is the Secretary of the British Music Hall Society.  She ran away from the law to research and write about her family connections with the Music Hall and has uncovered many little gems that she shares with us today.

"Dainty Daisy Dormer" was a Music Hall star.  She was also Alison's great great aunt.  She and her sisters toured around the UK  - and much further afield entertaining audiences in the thousands of music hall theatres that existed in the late 19th/early 20th centuries.

As well as Daisy and Co., Alison talks about the art of Sickert, Degas, Lautrec and others who painted backstage scenes in theatres and music halls  and gives an insight into the non-glamorous world of 19th/20th Century showbusiness.

Today's episode features writer and actor Paterson Joseph, author of the play "Sancho, An Act of Remembrance", which he has been performing for some 10 years and brings back to the theatre next year.   He has also recently completed a book about  Sancho, this incredible man who was born on a slave ship in the Atlantic and died a businessman in London.

Sancho's life was lived to the full: he composed popular music, corresponded with the great and the good of the day and became the first man of African heritage to vote in a UK general election.    Looking at the world through Sancho's eyes we see a strange place of terrible inequality yet great opportunity, we are forced to address the issues of slavery and racism but also come upon acts of great kindness and discover a true love story.  It is a brief glimpse of London in the 18th Century "in colour".

Probably best known as an actor Paterson Joseph has appeared in lead roles with the RSC and National Theatre.  His TV work is extensive and includes Peep Show, Casualty, Green Wing and most recently the BBC's Noughts and Crosses.

Nelly Power was a huge star of music hall who is now pretty much forgotten.

In 2017/18  Blue Fire's Lottie Walker was researching the life of Marie Lloyd when she discovered Nelly, who was in fact the first person to sing the famous song "The Boy I Love Is Up in the Gallery".   And made it her mission to get Ms Power the recognition she deserves.

By 2019  J.J. Leppink had written the one woman play, "Marie Lloyd Stole My Life" for Lottie to take to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.  since the show has been back to Nelly's hometown of Islington, playing at the Islington Museum and also at The Old Red Lion theatre, a space very similar to what Nelly herself would have recognised.

In this episode we meet the team behind the creation of the show and find out a little more about Nelly herself.

Marie Lloyd, Queen of the Music Hall was a force of nature with a larger than life personality.

At one time the highest paid act in the country, she sang a string of hit songs including "Oh, Mr Porter" and "Don't Dilly Dally on the Way".

Finding fame at the age of 15 she spent the next 40 years entertaining on the music halls and vaudeville theatres around the globe.  Her life was every bit as lively offstage as it was on.  She experienced extreme wealth and extreme poverty, 3 marriages and 2 divorces (and the marriage in between didn't end happily either!).

In this episode we tell you about Maries life and discuss what might have made her tick with two women who know her better than most:  Marie Kelly, who has performed as Marie Lloyd many times and Midge Gillies, author of what we think is the definitive biography of this unique character.

Alice Thornton was an ordinary, if somewhat well to do woman of the 17th century.

She lived through the time of Plague, the Great Fire of London, the English Civil War and the Restoration.  But as the old saying says "there are no troubles as big as your own" and Alice's troubles (indeed tragedies), which were many are what she recorded in her diary.

Dr Debbie Cannon, who is a writer and actor created her one person play,  "The Remarkable Deliverances of Alice Thornton for the Being Human Festival in 2019.  She was inspired by the research of Dr Cordelia Beattie of Edinburgh University and both talk to us about discovering Alice and her reintroduction to society some 400 years since her death.

Just before Christmas 2020 we had a  jolly conversation with Kate Griffin,  author of the "Kitty Peck" novels about her interest in music hall.

Kate tells us about her love of theatre, how she fell in love with music hall and Jenny Hall,  the real artiste that Kitty Peck is based on.  We also talk about principal boys, theatre ghosts and what pantomime was like in days gone by.


The "Kitty Peck" books are published by Faber and Faber:

Kitty Peck and the Music Hall Murders
Kitty Peck and the Child of Ill Fortune
Kitty Peck and the Daughter of Sorrow
Kitty Peck and the Parliament of Shadows
