4 Nov 1918 Nosey Knows Professional
Read Narrative
Performed for the week: ‘A new sketch from the prolific pen of Fred Karno occupied more than half the programme at the Pavilion last evening, and furnished more than its quota of merriment. Nosey Knows is not a revue, although it has all the light and free methods of this class of entertainment. Its story is trivial, but laughter-compelling, and this is perhaps the first essential of entertainment in these dark days’ (Liverpool Daily Post, 5 November 1918)

Read Narrative
Performed by the Broadhead Players including Paul Neville, Fred Granville and Ethel Bracewell.
