The Best in LA Theatre for 2011 (alphabetical listings) (artists performing outside LA may be included in performance categories)

Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy were the iconic comedy duo who made it possible for comedians like Jerry Lewis, Dick Van Dyke, Jim Carry and Adam Sandler to find their niche. Their intense chemistry, comaraderie and timing were impeccable. No one could do a five-minute sketch about putting up a ladder or pasting a billboard with the exact physical skill, dexterity or panache quite like Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. In Tom McGrath's play Laurel and Hardy, we see the funny and not so funny side of both men who brought wealth and fame to the Hal Roach Studio. At the Falcon Theatre until October 2, Laurel and Hardy are truly knocking 'em dead.

Falcon Theatre is proud to present the west coast premiere of Laurel and Hardy, written byTom McGrath and directed by Dimitri Toscas, the first production of its 2011-2012 Subscription Season. This sweet and sensationally funny bio-play stars Kevin Blake (iCarly, Jag) and Paul C. Vogt (MADtv and Broadway's Hairspray!), with Robert Petrarca at the piano.

With a solidly funny book by Larry Gelbart and Bert Shevelove and a clever, under-appreciated score by Stephen Sondheim (It remains Broadway's only Best Musical Tony-winner with eligible music and lyrics that were not even nominated for Best Score.), A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is one of the more dependable titles of musical theatre's standard repertoire.

Directed by Mark Waldrop, with choreography by Vince Pesce, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum will run at Paper Mill Playhouse's Millburn theater from March 16 through April 10, 2011. Check ouy production images for the show below!
