The life and career of Kenneth Williams will be explored in a show at the Lichfield Garrick.
Cult Figure, written and performed by Colin Elmer, will be at the city theatre on 21st May.
A spokesperson said:
“Kenneth Williams was one of the most unique and beloved figures in British comedy history.
“From show stealing performances on the radio and over 20 years of starring in the Carry On films, to becoming the darling of the chat shows, Williams was a rare talent who could turn from broad slapstick to erudite wit in a split second.
“Actor and impressionist, Colin Elmer, who played Kenneth Williams in the UK tours of Round the Horne and Hancock’s Half Hour, reprises his role in this new production, telling the great man’s story in his own words, using anecdotes, writings, and some of the material for which the comedy legend was so well-known.
“So, stop messing about and join us for a hilarious and engaging evening in the company of a true cult figure.”
