LAUREL and HARDY The U.S. Tours
After the two comedians meet at
the Hal Roach Studios, the story takes an unexpected route. Instead of
following them through the making of their films, we are led into a
parallel world of public appearances, show business events, theatre
tours, wartime fund raising tours, and troop shows. Revealed for the
first time ever are details of three major U.S. city-to-city stage
tours; numerous trips from the West to the East coast; three junkets to
Mexico; and even a tour of Caribbean islands. On their travels, Laurel
and Hardy meet a whole constellation of Hollywood stars; befriend a
future President; and are invited to the White House. Stan and Babe
emerge as warm and lovable, but vulnerable, men – and the reader will
experience their every highlight and emotion throughout their long
partnership.Second Edition. A4 Softback. 334 pages. Published November 2019. Extensively revised, reformatted. and expanded.
