100 Years Celebration of Laurel & Hardy presented by Neil Brand
28 April 2026ABOUT
Following the success of his 2023/24 tour, Neil Brand invites you to celebrate the centenary of Laurel and Hardy with a brand-new show.
Neil has established himself as the foremost exponent of silent film and improvised piano accompaniment. Thanks to new restorations of their silent films, and the rediscovery of some of their lesser-known comedies, he will uncover gems of hilarity from the team whose comedy never ages, and bring them to jaw-dropping life with the demanding live piano improvisations for which he is so famous. Featuring extended scenes from the best of their silent comedies, particularly You're Darn Tootin, The Finishing Touch and The Second Hundred Years.
Neil’s concerts have proved really popular due his personal contact with the audience and his unique insight into Laurel & Hardy. His engaging easy-going style, along with his Q&A at the end of the show, followed by an informal Meet & Greet, makes for a highly entertaining evening.
