Summary
Details

Roy Rene, best known as his grease-paint bearded character 'Mo', remains one of Australia's greatest theatrical legends. Born in 1891 at the start of vaudeville's golden era, he began his career as a boy soprano, when his voice broke he ventured into comedy and there found his true calling. Joining forces with Nat Phillips in 1915, the pair became national stars when 'Stiffy and Mo' were unleashed to the delight of audiences around the country. The legend had just begun.
