1158: A View on Access - Cult Figure: Kenneth Williams 2022 Tour


Listen Later

Tim Calvert is here with your latest A View on Access. This time, he's taking us on a unique production that needs no audio description to be accessible, Cult Figure: Kenneth Williams Tour.

Kenneth Williams was one of the most unique and beloved figures in British comedy history. From show stealing performances on the radio in Hancock’s Half Hour and Round the Horne to twenty years of Carry On films to 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 Colin Elmer, who played Kenneth Williams in our 50th Anniversary Tour of Round the Horne, reprises his role in this brand new production, telling the great man’s story in his own words, using anecdotes, writing 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.

AVOA is written, presented and produced by Tim Calvert of Calvert Creative Concepts for RNIB Connect Radio and The Audio Description Association. For more information or to get involved email [email protected]
