Two actors, comedians, personalities, show offs, call them what you will. A century apart, George Coppin and Barry Humphries bestrode the stage, bringing life and laughter to Melbourne theatres and audiences. Join Simon Plant, author of Entertaining Mr Coppin, as he connects the dots, uniting these two larger-than-life characters who tickled our funny bones, from colonial times to modern times. In the process, Simon will uncover just how much these two thespians had in common, both in comedy and in life.
