One Man Star Wars Show at Kentucky Center

If there has ever been a piece of theater more directly targeted toward my generation I have no idea what it would be. I mean come on, one guy performing every single scene from the original trilogy (it's a little wrong that I have to even say "original trilogy" isn't it?). He even "recreates the effects, sings the music, flies the ships, and fights both sides of the battles."

The show is coming to town for one night only (one man show, one night only!) on Friday December 7, 2007. Tickets are $23.50 and I suggest you get yours now before all the other children of the late 70s and 80s beat you to it.

A long time ago, in a galaxy… ah, forget about it! This isn’t your father’s Star Wars. Charles Ross performs every scene from the original Star Wars trilogy in a tour de force of farce. Luke, Han, Obi-Wan, Vader, even R2 get channeled through the twisted mind of this manic maniac. A Canadian actor who has followed his heart and his career from one side of the continent to the other, Ross has brought countless audiences, both large and small, to their feet with his surprisingly unique shows. And the Chicago Daily Herald raves, “A wild amusement park ride. My first impulse was to get in line and go again.”
