FOR one night only One Man’s Madness – a feature length rock-docu-mockumentary telling the story of Lee ‘Kix’ Thompson will be showing at Showcase Cinema de Lux, Southampton on Wednesday May 23.

Starring Suggs, Mike Barson, Cathal Smyth, Mark Bedford, Woody, Chris Foreman, Neville Staples, Lynval Golding, Norman Cook and more, this delightful film is not to be missed.

The slapstick romp film tells the tells the story of the Madness saxophonist, told by Lee and his fellow Madness band mates, his family, friends and musicologists, who strangely all look a little like him.

Lee is a most unlikely character.

Early career choices had him spend a year in Borstal.

He still hasn’t found the receipt for his first saxophone.

Luckily, he met two other unlikely characters: Mike ‘Barso’ Barson and ‘Chrissy Boy’ Foreman who shared his interests of graffiti, train hopping and music.

In a career spanning 40 years, Lee has become a key songwriter in Madness and a firm favourite with fans around the world.

“The whole experience in the making of this Mocu has been a sheer joy,” says Lee.

“Miming along to all the characters was slightly tongue twisting, however with the director’s patience and perseverance we got there eventually. Casually construed, carefully nurtured, how it should be. Jeff makes a fantastic Cappuccino and his wife was most patient with my array of props, wigs and slap. Thank you to all involved, you’ve made a happy man very old!”
