DANNY KAYE, the popular American film star, broadcasting in the B.B.C.’s magazine programme “In Town Tonight.” Kaye went to London for a few weeks at the Palladium, one of the capital's biggest theatres, and packed it every night to capacity, while hundreds queued each day to buy standing room. There has been no sensation like Danny Kaye in London for many years The force of his personality is terrific and lie could fill the theatre for months instead of weeks. His art is really pantomime, which he learnt largely by playing to audiences in the Far East who knew no English. He has an incredible facility for singing songs in what almost amounts to gibberish, but which reduces his audience to one compact mass of cheering humanity. It was a long time before he was discovered, though he was in show business from his early days, ever since he started entertaining customers when he was a waiter in a summer camp.
