SILENT FILM: Laurel & Hardy Laugh-a-thon
2018 Summer Movie Series
Event Info
Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy first teamed up in the 1920s, starring in 32 silent comedy shorts on their journey to becoming one of American cinema’s most beloved comedy duos. Featured organist Clark Wilson and the Ohio Theatre’s original “Mighty Morton” theatre organ make a “most beloved duo” of their own, performing live to five Laurel and Hardy silent short favorites — “Two Tars” (1928), "Putting Pants on Phillip" (1927), "Leave ‘Em Laughing" (1928), "Habeas Corpus" (1928), and "That’s My Wife" (1929).
