Complete Works of Shakespeare Abridged

The Story

February 16 – March 22

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! PRODUCED AT WALK FESTIVAL HALL!

IT’S CRAZY! IT’S WHACKY! IT HAS MORE LAUGHS THAN MONTY PYTHON, SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE AND SECOND CITY ROLLED INTO ONE!

This rollicking romp through all of Shakespeare’s plays will leave your sides hurting from laughter; it’s Shakespeare the way you’ve always wanted to see him done – the history plays as a football game, Hamlet with a sock-puppet ghost, Titus Andronicus a la a Julia Childs cooking show, and, of course, Othello as a hip-hop rap song – but wait, there’s more...

This crazy show has had long successful runs in New York and London and in most regional theatres throughout the United States, including Off Square.

Don’t miss this hilarious play with three of the region’s funniest actors: Todd Hjelt, Jamie Reilly and Cory Phillips – all members of Jackson’s own Out Of Thin Air improv troupe.

"This irreverent deconstruction of Shakepeare's work makes a dilly of poor Willy. A fantasia of zany energy that throws together Monty Python-ish drag and Mel Brook-ish anything-for-a-laugh gags."

Michael Musto, New York Daily News

"Fresh, energetic and funny. A wild and silly frolic."
