ACTOR Jeffrey Holland brings his one-man show “ . . . my friend Mr Laurel” to The Haymarket in March.

Fulfilling a long held desire to pay tribute to his hero Stan Laurel, Jeffrey tells this intriguing, funny and often poignant tale of friendship, love and dedication about one of Hollywood’s great film comedians.

Set in the bedroom of a sick Oliver Hardy, the show takes place during Laurel’s visit.

Recounting their past success as the comedy double act Laurel and Hardy, this is a humorous and touching look at one of the great cinematic partnerships.

This one act performance on Friday, March 13 at 7.30pm, will be followed by a free post-show talk with Jeffrey.
