Lee Ephraim was known at one time as the ' Mystery Man of the Theatre.' It was a title that he deserved. He was a retiring man who never thrust himself into the limelight and yet, though his name might not be known to the wide public, he had as many successes to his credit as many more flamboyant managements. The Desert Song was his greatest triumph but he was also responsible for Rose Marie , Gay Divorce, On Your Toes, all the Cicely Courtneidge and Jack Hulbert shows during the war, and also Carissima.
