Imagine presents Gracie Otto's film The Last Impresario and the story of the most famous man you have never heard of - Michael White.

The British producer paved the way for internationally acclaimed stage hits including A Chorus Line, Sleuth and The Rocky Horror Show. He has produced over 300 shows, often against the odds and at great personal cost.
