In what started off as a 20 minute comedy sketch, Charles Ross has, over time (and with a little help from non-other than Lucas Film) built his One Man Star Wars show into a one hour spectacular. And spectacular it is. Performing this show for the last 6 years and all over the world, Charles has mastered the physically and verbally brutal script to a fine art.
Using nothing but his own body and vocal chords (and a little help from the lighting guy and a stary backdrop) he re-enacts the most vital parts of the Star Wars trilogy so quickly that you wonder when he has time to breathe (let alone prepare for the next line).
With some comedic license and very abstract characterizations and action scenes to boot, Charles will have all Star Wars fanatics in stitches as they follow their favourite characters through a whirlwind journey of enlightenment, action and love.
Be warned however, if you haven’t seen the films or are not intimately familiar with some of the lesser known scenes some of the performance may go over your head!!
