The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)
by Adam Long, Jess Winfield, Daniel Singer
directed by Holly M Wright
What happens when two professionals and a friend off the street try to do all thirty-seven of Shakespeare’s plays in seventy minutes? A little bit of chaos, a lot of hilarity, and more cross-dressing than one would expect. Through witty story-telling, pithy interjection, original re-imaginings, situational comedy, a cooking show, a game of American Football, and a touch of audience interaction, Shakespearean haters and admirers alike will take delight in this marathon. Many have said it could not be done - they would be wrong. It can be done! Watch as this trio of clowns (probably) accomplishes the impossible in “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)”, a high-speed roller-coaster-like peak-a-boo look at all thirty-seven of the Bard’s masterworks in seventy minutes - and don’t forget the sonnets!
