All The King’s Men: Putting It Together Again (All The King’s Men)
By Ellen Wilson | Published on Saturday 27 August 2011
This all-male a capella group should have been one of the geekiest things on the Fringe – a group of young guys in matching purple shirts, singing, dancing, creating ‘modern musical mash-ups’ and idolising ‘Glee’? Yet with their tight vocals, great dance moves, funny chat and mix of pop, rock, funk, rap, swelling ballads and even a Spice Girls medley, ‘All The King’s Men’ proved me wrong. It isn’t at all geeky; it’s super-cool. By the end of the show, I couldn’t stop myself from joining in their standing ovation, and they had surpassed N-Sync to become my favourite boy band of all time. All The King’s Men, I love you! Sign my bra!
theSpaces at Surgeons Hall, 15 – 27 Aug, 3.00pm (3.45pm), £5.00 – £8.00, fpp193.
