One Man Star Wars Trilogy Returns To The UK

Posted By Dustin on June 24, 2008

In a recent survey, Sky Movies discovered that the Star Wars Trilogy was the most watched film by all male respondents and the second most watched film by the female respondents, with 50 per cent of all participants claiming that they had watched the films more than twenty times. Canadian actor Charles Ross has seen it far more often?

Star Wars was continually running in the background while Ross was growing up in the wilds of Victoria, Canada, and the result is his hilarious show,

One-Man Star Wars Trilogy, in which he single-handedly plays all the characters, sings the music, flies the spaceships, fights the battles and condenses the plots into just sixty minutes!

Since its debut in Toronto, in January 2001, One-Man Star Wars Trilogy, written by Ross and directed by TJ Dawe, has toured Canada and the USA, including an off-Broadway run, to huge acclaim. Charles has appeared on a number of prestigious American TV shows, including The Today Show and Late Night with Conan O'Brien, and Star Wars creator LucasFilms loved the show so much, they hired him to promote Star Wars: Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith and to perform at the official Star Wars Conventions Celebration III and Celebration IV in Los Angeles.

After crossing the Atlantic in 2006, One-Man Star Wars Trilogy became the talk of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival where it sold out every performance of its run ? an incredible result led to the organisers inviting the show to return in 2007. Since making his UK debut, Ross has performed in the mud of Glastonbury Festival, enjoyed a West End run at London?s Garrick Theatre, guested at the massive Star Wars 30th Anniversary Celebration Europe at London?s ExCel Centre and appeared in numerous theatres up and down the country. He has also been on Christian O?Connell?s Breakfast Show on Virgin Radio and even performed an early morning extract to the bemused presenters of BBC Radio 4?s Today programme!

Following his recent three month tour of Australasia, Charles is bringing the One-Man Star Wars Trilogy back to the UK one final time in July before moving on to a new project, so this could be your last chance to catch his affectionate and very funny tribute to the films that have become a part of so many people?s lives. Whether you?re a committed fan or simply want to enjoy a fast-paced, side-splitting evening that's out of this world, make sure you don?t miss this show!




?It?s a joy? quite brilliant.? - Daily Telegraph

?A delight for fans? but there?s enough here to satisfy casual observers too.? ? The Independent

?Virtuosic? ? The Times

?Side-splittingly ludicrous? ? Edinburgh Evening News

"This is the show my kids are still talking about? This is a very clever, very funny show? I am considering seeing it again? A Fringe ?must see?? hugely impressive.? - Ticket buyers? reviews on www.edfringe.com
