An intimate portrait of visionary showman James Lord Corrigan. Written by Corrigan's confidante Maureen Prest, this is the only insider's account of what really went on at his world famous Batley Variety Club, both in front of house and behind closed doors. From his origins on a travelling funfair, his audacious climb through the world of show business, his turbulent marriage to his glamorous wife Betty, and his dramatic retreat, this is a story of rags to riches and back to rags. With a twist.
