Behind the Limelight 2005

Behind the Limelight explores the life and art of Charlie Chaplin, one of the world’s most beloved performers, with one of history’s most turbulent careers. Featuring three actors as Chaplin—the child, the tramp and the old man—[the show] takes us from his vaudeville days to his groundbreaking work behind and in-front of the camera, his first wife to his third, his American naturalization to the exile brought about by Hollywood’s gossip mill and the House Un-American Activities Committee.
