Hullo Eccles!
The Goons' brand of sublime nonsense and complete weirdness has taken the airwaves of England by storm, and Spike Milligan, Peter Sellers, Harry Secombe and Wallace Greenslade are basking in the success of their cult radio show.
But the comedy machinery of The Goon Show is taking its toll. Spike's mind is starting to play tricks on him... What's he doing in an asylum? What are Bluebottle and Seagoon doing there? Why does the doctor look like Greenslade? And who are those little green guys?
Welcome to the mad world of Ying Tong - unleashing the revolutionary and chaotic silliness of The Goons at His Majesty's Theatre to entertain you in time for the 2008 silly season!
A Sydney Theatre Company Production.
"Geoff Kelso’s quick-witted and whiskered Milligan is superb, catching the comic’s vocal modulations, facial movements and poetic chaos beautifully. Similarly David James’s Secombe and Jonathan Biggins’s Sellers more than balance Kelso’s portrayal… Smiles’s ability to render Milligan’s anguished battle against his demons, and write plot sections as actual Goon Show episodes, reveals substantial insight and skill.” Lenny Ann Low, The Sydney Morning Herald
"Agonisingly funny... Ying Tong proves both hilarious and deeply moving and in the theatre you can’t ask for much more than that.” The Telegraph, UK
Presented by Black Swan State Theatre Company in association with His Majesty's Theatre.
