Fringe on Tour
The true story of Britain's greatest wartime entertainer!
‘The Ukulele Man’ is the true story of wartime comedian and ukulele legend George Formby. From the Music Halls of Blackpool to the battlefields of Europe, this is the untold history of Britain's greatest entertainer!
He was banned by the BBC and declared insane by his wife, and yet still became the UK’s biggest star. Join Marcel Cole and his real life mother Katie for an hour of music, comedy and storytelling, as they take you back to an era when live entertainment was king, and pay homage to the greatest entertainer of them all.
