David Benson burst onto the theatre scene in 1996, taking the Edinburgh Fringe by storm with Think No Evil Of Us: My Life with Kenneth Williams. Critics, audiences and close friends of Williams were unanimous in their praise.
Thirty years on, and in celebration of Kenneth Williams' 100th Birthday, David Benson revisits his classic portrait of the much-missed Carry On star in a new version of the show exploring the astonishing connection that intertwined his life with that of Williams when Benson was still a schoolboy.
In a dazzling display of impeccably honed stage craft, Benson gives an unsparing portrayal of the tormented comic genius, lurching from hilarity to self-pity in public and in private. A captivating raconteur in his own right, Benson has many tales to tell of his time as 'the man who does Kenneth Williams' and the adventures he has had since in an unconventional career.
David Benson has most recently been seen touring nationwide with Jack Lane in their acclaimed Dad's Army Radio Show.
