Cult Figure: Kenneth Williams
Wed 16 Feb 2022 8:00 PM - Thu 17 Feb 2022 GMT
Alma Tavern and Theatre, BS82HY
Description
Kenneth Williams was one of the most unique and beloved figures in British comedy history. From show stealing performances on the radio and over twenty 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.
Celebrated actor and impressionist, Colin Elmer tells 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.
Approx running time 2 hours

The Alma Theatre has been serving the community for 25 years and has never been the recipient of ACE or other funding. Our theatre manager started maternity leave as the pandemic hit and as a result we missed all opportunities for additional arts council support. We have been offering reduced rates, preferential box office splits and extended promo support to aid the recovery from the past year and a half. Your help will enable us to continue bringing fantastic stories to your local theatre. 50% of your donation will go to the Alma Theatre, and 50% to our inhouse company, Schoolhouse Productions.
