Before Tom Cruise, Cary Grant or Clark Gable, Douglas Fairbanks was the King Of Hollywood!
Now virtually forgotten, Doug was a remarkable actor and gifted visionary. Alongside his wife Mary Pickford and his best friend Charlie Chaplin, he is responsible for the movie industry as we know it today. Doug single-handedly invented the action movie and was instrumental in the creation of the Oscars, Beverley Hills and even Batman! The King Of Hollywood tells the story of his rise and fall which is more astonishing than any movie!
Writer and director Paul Stone (‘His writing is hugely effecting’ – britishtheatre.com) tells the amazing true
story of the first and greatest of Hollywood legends. Gerardo Cabal brings Doug to life in this moving and funny (almost) one man show. Simon Lawrence plays… see if you can work it out!
