BASIC TRAINING

Basic Training is one of the shows of the century. Australian Stage

Written by Kahlil Ashanti
Performed by Kahlil Ashanti

Kahlil Ashanti returns to Australia after conquering the Edinburgh, Montreal, Vancouver and Melbourne Fringe Festivals with sold out seasons!

Ashanti presents his autobiographical one-man show, Basic Training, chronicling his time in the military where he learned to serve his country using his talent as his weapon. His adventures put him in several life-affirming and life threatening situations all narrated by 23 of the most hilarious, larger than life characters imaginable. Along the way Ashanti comes of age, discovers his roots, and learns what the real “Basic Training” of life is all about.

This hilarious tale of survival and redemption is superbly realised through a unique blend of comedy, drama and dance.
