Frankie Darro made several appearances
on the Red Skelton
Comedy Hour. While he is mainly remembered as playing a little
old lady in many of his appearances, Frankie appeared in other
sketches as well, like this one in which he is the foreman on a
high-rise construction site. Frankie's appearances often took
place in the "silent spot," which were comedy sketches done in
pantomime. Sadly none of Frankie's appearances on the show
are currently available on DVD or videotape.
A big thanks goes out to Wade Ballard, an avid fan who has been researching Frankie's career for many years and was kind enough to send us a lot of new information for this site!
Thanks also to John R. for providing so much useful information and facts for the site!

A puzzling mystery! Does anyone happen to know where Frankie Darro appears in the movie The Ten Commandments? We've heard he is credited as playing a slave and appears in a scene with Carl "Alfalfa" Switzer, but several of us have searched the movie repeatedly and can't find them for certain. If you know where they are in the movie, please e-mail us and let us know! Thanks!!!
