Samuel Joseph Torr (1849–1923) was an English music hall comedian who performed in a style known as lion comique.
He performed his best-known song, "On the Back of Daddy-O", dressed in a life-size dummy with a wicker work frame to create the illusion that he was riding on the dummy's back.[1] A popular entertainer, Torr appeared at all the major music hall venues around Britain including Wilton's Music Hall in London.[2]
