As they play, demonstrating how the working class can’t get ahead because of the rules set and constantly changed by the ruling classes, they encounter a dizzying array of bizarre and colourful characters who lead them to an unexpected conclusion

Originally seen for a 1964 pre-London British tour starring Norman Wisdom,The Roar of The Greasepaint – The Smell Of The Crowd features songs including A Wonderful Day Like Today, The Joker, Who Can I Turn To?, The Beautiful Land and Feeling Good.
