Harry Welchman

Welchman in Sybil, 1921–22

Harry Welchman (24 February 1886 – 3 January 1966) was an English star of musical theatre. He made several appearances in non-musical plays, but was remembered as, in the words of The Times, "perhaps the most popular musical comedy hero on the London stage in the years between the wars."[1]

Welchman was primarily a stage performer, but he made nineteen films between 1915 and 1954, some of them musical and others straight drama.
