Lenny Henry was granted a solo concert film in 1989, a rare honor for a British comedian. The film opens with Henry being driven to the concert by a questionable taxi driver, played by Robbie Coltrane. Upon arrival, he meets three of his comedic idols - Steve Martin, Richard Pryor, and Eddie Murphy - all portrayed by Henry himself. The stage show blends stand-up comedy with appearances by his iconic characters and features a few humorous songs throughout.
