One man show - Ken Campbell
Saw Ken last night is his mad, but brilliant one man show. He takes you on a journey that you'll find nowhere else, so try and catch him if you can. It's loosely based around the topic of ventriloquism, but takes in so many ideas and wonderful meanderings that it's hard to keep up. It's very funny, poignant and at times baffling. If I get time I'll do a review, but just go and see him if he turns up in your local theatre, which he's quite likely to. Superb!
He really is magnificent. I first saw him when he was doing his 'world record for keeping two weasels down your trousers' tour. That must have been 1969 or 1970. He really did put the weasels down his trousers! I've seen him many times since and never been disappointed. A true old trouper.
