I came across the above article and had to post it. Some of you may know that in the early days of his career, Doug would perform as the mime Chou Chou. Sponsored by the Canadian Shoe and Leather industries, Doug would tour malls in the aptly named “Shoe String Revue.”

The article itself goes into more detail of the performance. However, it’s the picture of Doug in full makeup performing that’s worth the price of admission alone. We all have to start somewhere!
