In 1910, the then-unknown Charlie Chaplin and Stan Laurel set sail from Liverpool to New York as members of Fred Karno’s famous music hall troupe. On the voyage, they shared a cabin, comedy routines and laughter. 

Inspired by real events, Told by an Idiot’s acclaimed Charlie & Stan tells the remarkable story of the greatest double act that nearly was – a hilarious and deeply moving homage to two men who changed the world of comedy forever. Accompanied by live music composed and performed by MOBO Award-winning jazz pianist Zoe Rahman, this tribute to the silent movie era follows two young comedians on a voyage of self-discovery. “A riotous masterclass in storytelling” (WhatsOnStage).
