Synopsis:
The
film
centers
on
Charles
Saggers,
a
street
busker
–
a
Londoner
who
performs
in
the
streets.
He
meets
Libby
and
catches
her
stealing
from
him,
and
then,
from
Harley
Prentiss,
a
songwriter,
taking
a
cigarette
case.
Even
though
Libby
steals
to
survive,
she
is
a
natural
street
entertainer,
and
Prentiss
notices
her
talent,
catapulting
her
to
fame
as
a
British
music
hall
star.
Not
forgetting
Charles’
giving
her
a
chance
in
the
first
place
in
his
street
act,
she
offers
him
an
opportunity
to
be
a
performer
on
the
inside.
Yet,
he
can
only
feel
at
home
busking
and
in
the
company
of
his
old
friends.
