Whrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Clickety, click click click click… Flicker... flicker... flicker...

All the slapstick, melodrama, pratfalls and daredevil stunts of the silent movie era are coming off the screen and onto the live stage. So places everyone... a-a-a-and action! Here comes our "leading man." A most recognizable little fellow in a porkpie hat. Our everyman clown/hero with the indomitable spirit, who takes you through his world of Keystone Kop-esque chases – "Hey, you!" Narrow escapes – "Look out!" And pining for the love of his life – "Be still my heart!"

Follow him right into a Hollywood movie studio, where he declares he's going to make something of himself to win his beloved. Predicaments galore? Indeed, but this little guy triumphs in the most endearing, madcap, calamitous way. It's all the best from the silent movie era, now coming to a stage near you.

"...spot-on timing, deft physical humor and lots of heart..."
–Minneapolis Star Tribune [Get review]

"The physical comedy is timeless, and it’s well executed... a virtuoso performance!"
–St. Paul Pioneer Press [Get review]
