Out of the Silent Movie era
and the heady heights of 1920s Hollywood, Mack and Mabel
tells the heart-wrenching love story of two of its
greatest legends; director Mack Sennett “The King of
Comedy” and his star, comedienne Mabel Normand.
When ‘hash-slinger’ Mabel Normand turns up on the set of
film-maker Mack Sennett, creator of the Keystone Cops,
she catches his eye and soon captures his heart. Before
long, Mabel is starring in Sennett’s two-reelers and
together they bring magic to the silver screen. Yet
ambition, dalliance and the impending threat of changing
times make for a tempestuous relationship. Romance turns
to jealousy while stardom foreshadows scandal and
heartbreak. But despite the odds, this inimitable pair
can never escape the undeniability of their love for
each other.
Mack and Mabel reunites the same creative team whose
uniquely imaginative production of Sweeney Todd beguiled
West End audiences and critics alike and which opened on
Broadway in September, 2005
