One clown waits for the other: Inspired by Beckett and Laurel and Hardy, Max Merker and Aaron Hitz breathe new life into the tradition of existential clowning using their own unique methods.
A theater legend says that Samuel Beckett had two comedians in mind as the ideal cast for his most famous play, Waiting for Godot: Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, better known as Laurel and Hardy. Laurel and Hardy made over 100 films together. Laurel wrote the sketches, Hardy performed them. Oliver Hardy died in 1957. This also marked the end of Stan Laurel's professional life. He never made another film. Nevertheless, he continued to write screenplays, as if he were waiting for his brother in crime, his brother in comedy, to return.
Touched by this story, Max Merker and Aaron Hitz, known for their physical and humorous acting, explore the tragedy of loneliness—and the possibility of overcoming it through comedy. Comedy, like life, is something that cannot be done alone: how can you throw a cream pie in your own face? Inspired by Laurel, Hardy, and Beckett, Merker and Hitz breathe new life into the tradition of existential clowning with their own means.
