About Charlie & Stan
This little chapter in time shows the bigger picture of two rising stars. On their North American adventures Charlie Chaplin and Stan Laurel would refine skills that would later lead to them becoming the biggest comics of their age, and would inspire other comedians for decades to come.
They shared everything, a cabin, comedy routines, laughter and even the odd glass of port on their North American tour, with Stan as Charlie’s understudy. Stan would later return home and become known as one half of the comedy duo Laurel and Hardy, Charlie would refine his Little Tramp Character, and within a few years become one of the worlds biggest comics. Stan would discuss Charlie for the rest of his life, whereas in Charlie’s autobiography, Stan would not receive a single mention…
