Will Evans was noted for his pantomime appearances and slap-stick sketches. Included here is his famous sketch Building a Chicken House together with other comic songs and monologues. Will Evans also introduces us to Jim, a character who apears in several recordings. Plus some topical comments from 1908 on the subject of the Suffragette.
Great fun from the early 20th Century.
