The comedian and impressionist Samuel Foote (1720-77) was a superstar of the Georgian stage but was ruined by a media storm and two scandalous trials. This biography covers Footes early success with a true-crime book about his uncles murder; his long-forgotten satirical works; the roles he created; the disastrous practical joke that cost him a leg; and the sodomitical circumstances of his fall from grace.
