This funny and touching new play offers the opportunity to discover the man who was formerly Stan Jefferson, and how and why he became Stan Laurel - comedy genius. With extensive research and assistance from Lois Laurel-Hawes, Stan Laurel's real life daughter, this play gets closer than ever before to discovering the man who made the world laugh and his relationship with the world when the cameras stopped turning. A wonderful and affectionate portrait of a man who left England on the same boat as Charlie Chaplin bound for America to make his fortune.
