| Description |
In another hit from the Edinburgh Festival, Laurel and Hardy are reunited in Limboland - with the task of telling the people who they really were, on-screen and off. They trace their careers and lives from the beginning. They eventually come together as a double act, performing some of the many hilarious scenes from past films. "The slapstick is exquisite, the music is perfect, the bond between the audience and those two timeless characters is as strong as if Stan and Oliver were still with us." - The Guardian. |
