The only time I feel like dusting down the term ‘genius’, in the pure sense of an influential demonic character, is when I’m confronted by a great Ken Campbell show. (Michael Coveney, Observer)

Campbell is conducting us on a guided tour of the wilder shores of his own imagination.

Suffice it to say that this nasal infestation indulges in carnal nosilage and cunnisneezus …Campbell is an inspired original who reaches the parts other entertainers haven’t even heard of. (Charles Spencer, Daily Telegraph)
