One-Man Star Wars Trilogy

I have to begin by saying that I am incredibly thankful to my flatmate, Adam, for taking the time to give me a brief rundown of all the Star Wars films prior to my arrival in Edinburgh. If you are planning on going to see Charles Ross’ One Man Star Wars Trilogy and you have never seen the movies or, like myself, have not seen them since you were a child, I recommend you do the same (with your own flatmate, of course).

As Ross takes you through the original three films, he does so with so much non-stop energy, that this alone becomes fascinating to watch. He does everything from voices to sound affects (though his Yoda can use a little work), working with no props or set pieces at all.

To his credit, the Star Wars fans in the audience were having a fantastic time and caught a number of references that, I have to admit, completely escaped me. For this reason, I wouldn’t necessarily consider this “a show for everyone”, but rather “a show for people who have done their homework”.

Reviews by Fritzie Andrade

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

Theatre MAD

Their UK and International grant-making strategy is based on five criteria that raise awareness, educate, and provide care and support for the most vulnerable in society. A host of fundraising events, including Bucket Collections, Late Night Cabarets, West End Eurovision, West End Bares and A West End Christmas continue to raise funds for projects both in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
