A childhood in the throes of war; watching her parents perform around the country; treading the boards at an early age; growing up in the glamorous world of show-business; falling in love with an actor who became a movie star; touring with Laurence Olivier and Vivien Leigh – this is the life of Georgina Morgan. Along with her husband, fellow actor Terence Morgan, she led an enchanted life full of gala premieres and celebrity parties.
But in earlier times, the couple could barely afford to feed themselves, as they were faced with the acting profession’s perennial problem of unemployment. At all times, however, Georgina’s love was the driving force in Terence’s life and career. Laughter in the Air offers a rare opportunity to experience the film and theatre industry over the decades, told with humour and candid charm. Following the couple on tours, at home and abroad, this is an enduring love story for our time.
