Description

Throughout the 20th century, no one brought the world more laughter than the beloved comedy team of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, who actor Danny Kaye described as: “making us laugh because in them we saw ourselves – ridiculous, frustrated, up to our necks in trouble, but ourselves nevertheless.”

Now the incomparable duo return to the big screen with four brand new restorations of their early silent shorts: "Duck Soup";  "Sailors Beware";  "Do Detectives Think?"; and "Battle of the Century".

You don’t want to miss the perfect harmony of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy as they cause mayhem with their wacky fire-fighting, silly criminal-nabbing and epic cream pie-tossing, all accompanied with a live score by Bruce Vogt. It will definitely be an afternoon you'll never forget!

Bruce Vogt is a Canadian pianist and teacher who has received praise internationally for his mesmerizing solo and chamber music performances, inspiring audiences across Canada and throughout Europe and the USA.
