GARRICK THEATRE |
PRINCE of WALES HOTEL |
| Southport was another Lancashire seaside
resort which received just the one visit from the Hollywood comedians - Laurel and Hardy. Perhaps one week was enough. First of all Southport had been hit by a terrible storm just a couple of days before Stan and Ollie arrived - w/c 18 August 1952. And then Stan was laid low by diabetes, and spent most of his time in the hotel. The theatre, though, was packed nightly. |
