About the year 1900, a small, dark-haired hot boy named Charlie Chaplin was often seen waiting outside the back entrance of London theatres. He looked thin and hungry. He was hoping to get work in show business. He could sing and dance; above all, he knew how to make people laugh. But he couldn’t get work and so he wandered（流浪）about the city streets. Sometimes he was sent away to a home for children who had no parents.
