I short while ago I went to the Hazlitt Theatre in Maidstone to see Alasdair Becket-King perform his show King Of Crumbs. I really enjoyed it. I found his humour lovely with many callbacks. He coped with a “mildly irritating” but “excitable” person in the front row really well. I know one of the sons found this person annoying but that’s just how life goes I think. I didn’t mind particularly. The show wasn’t that long, coming in at about an hour and twenty. The coordination between ABK and the lights and computer imagery was really impressive, it was a well rehearsed show.
It’s a shame to live in Kent at the moment with its reputation of being full of racists, which I guess it is. ABK asked about that after a lefty joke and he was assured that the theatre was friendly people who care and not full of the Kent stereotype. It’s not great that the county is tarred by those who are most vocal.
Great show.
