Recently, Charlie Ross brought his "One Man Star Wars Trilogy" show to The Croswell Opera House.  Moff D sent in this transmission:

"Members of the Great Lakes Base and Great Lakes Garrison lent a helping hand to the One Man Star Wars show on April 21 in Adrian, MI.  Some Rebel Pilots, Stormtroopers and a couple of Tusken Raiders provided some Star Wars ambience before and after the show, not that much help is needed when seeing Charlie Ross’ kinetic and hilarious one hour take on the original trilogy.  All of the favorite moments, from Luke glancing longingly at the twin suns of Tatooine to Admiral Ackbar’s “It’s a trap” line are contained in the show.  Charlie did a fantastic job with voices and characterizations while managing to play with the audience at opportune moments.  The crowd was receptive and boisterous, so much so that Charlie actually did Luke-getting-knocked-off-the-Tauntaun twice at the crowd’s urging.  He had never received a good ovation at that point in the show and was happy to oblige."

"After the show, Charlie did some Q & A with the audience, relating how he started the show, how LFL permitted him to continue (their idea of an audition: performing the show in front of 4000 people at San Diego Comic Con) and doing a spot-on imitation of Smeagol from his One Man Lord of the Rings.  He would later spend some time in the lobby talking with fans and indulged the Rebel Legion and 501st members with a post-show get-together at a nearby restaurant.  It was a fun evening all-around, and if ever you have an opportunity to catch the One Man Star Wars show, don’t pass it up."
