Charles Ross would have a tough time sifting through the cluttered contents of George Lucas’ brain and finding even 10 minutes of value in the saga of Anakin Skywalker. But the expert mimic and physical comedian’s solo take on the original Star Wars trilogy is a veritable gold mine. The Canadian performer’s material is dummy-proof, and he sells every minute of this brisk, CliffsNotes-style reduction with intense focus and infectious energy. Maybe that’s why he’s back in town for his third trip in two years, following a brief run at this year’s Fringe Fest and a similar engagement at Woolly Mammoth. It goes without saying that Ross’ material plays best to fans, but The One Man Star Wars Trilogy also provides a little chin music for theatrical purists: It aims for the visceral, sings the joys of simple economy, and never overstays its welcome. The performance starts at 2 p.m. at Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company, 641 D St. NW. $28–$32. (202) 393-3939; see City List for a complete schedule.
