Introduced by Vanessa Lee
Evelyn Laye recalls aspects of her varied and distinguished career.
The theatre of the first half of this century had what they called
" glamour: ". Champagne was guzzled from ladies' shoes. Diamonds lurked in bouquets of flowers, left at stage-doors by that now-vanished race of gentlemen. " The Stage-Door Johnnies " the humbler ones who weren't Dukes or Lords, merely millionaires and all a girl needed to l»nd herself one of these, was to get a job in the shows of the Gaiety Theatre.'
