EDITORS COMMENTS
Biddy 'The Tubman' Stonham: The Unforgettable Acrobat and Seaside Entertainer of Hastings, East Sussex (circa 1920) Biddy 'The Tubman' Stonham, an extraordinary figure of the early 20th century, was a captivating acrobat and seaside entertainer who brought joy and wonder to the quaint coastal town of Hastings, East Sussex. This photograph showcases Biddy in his prime, balancing precariously atop a large tub, a signature prop that would become synonymous with his unique act. Biddy's performances were a delightful blend of the unusual, entertaining, bizarre, and odd. His act, which defied logic and gravity, left audiences in awe and laughter. With a twinkle in his eye and a mischievous grin, he would skillfully maneuver around the stage, performing seemingly impossible feats atop his large, round tub. The 1910s, 1920s, and 1930s were the golden age of seaside entertainment, and Biddy 'The Tubman' Stonham was a shining star. His acrobatic abilities were second to none, and his balance act, which involved a large stick and his trusty tub, was a sight to behold. The tub, which seemed to defy the laws of physics, became an integral part of his act, and his ability to maintain his balance atop it left spectators in amazement. Today, we can still witness the hilarious antics of Biddy 'The Tubman' Stonham through the many film clips available online. His performances are a reminder of a bygone era, a time when entertainment was simple, unusual, and full of wonder. Biddy's legacy continues to inspire and delight, and his memory lives on as a testament to the power of human ingenuity and the enduring appeal of the seaside.
