A POPULAR live show returned to Maldon with a popular celebrity actor joining in on stage.

Callum White, 23, from Heybridge is a singer and entertainer who performed his show ‘Doing it My Way’ for the third time at Maldon Town Hall in August.

Callum said he changed a lot of the set even in the weeks prior, to make it “the hardest, most powerful set we can do”.

The venue was full due to the on-the-door selling and comp tickets.

Callum said: “The band absolutely smashed it out the park.

“Our drummer, a professional beat boxer, came out and beat boxed live. The saxophonist played the flute, the guitarists played the violin. It all worked out in the end.”

Ethan, known for Netflix’s After Life, Horrible Histories and Bad Education, did not sing and instead took part in the “call and response comedy”.

Callum said Ethan was “so up for being on board” and enjoyed his return to the stage.

Callum also he wanted a celebrity from Maldon as “the whole point of the show was the community venue”.
