About
Marie Lloyd Stole My Life: scandal, stardom and suffrage – with songs!
It’s 1886 and 15 year old Marie Lloyd is about to become the “Queen of the Music Hall” but at what cost, and to whom…?
Meet Nelly Power - She's a big star with a life more dramatic offstage than on and she's about to lose everything thanks to her terrible taste in men and the machinations of an up and coming new teenage sensation. None other than Marie Lloyd herself!
In the true spirit of all comedy based on tragedy, Nelly tells the story of her life and career with amusing anecdotes and a wry sense of humour. This is an hilarious and poignant real-life tale of female empowerment in a patriarchal society, along with ageism, sexism and many other factors that haven’t changed in 150 years. Let us take you back in time to tell, through the eyes of the now-forgotten Nelly Power, the story of how the Queen of the Music Hall came to fame. All together now….
