Mention the name Stanley Holloway and, invariably, his larger-than-life portrayal of Alfred Doolittle, the irrepressible dustman in "My Fair Lady", comes to mind.
However it is for his classic monologues in the 30's and 40's, where this East London lad adopted the role of genial northener that his comic reputation lies.
Avid are proud to present nineteen incomparable, comic monologues, each a miniature masterpiece, from one of the true British comic legends.
