A high-speed roller-coaster type condensation of all of Shakespeare’s plays, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged), by Adam Long, Daniel Singer and Jess Winfield takes on all 37 plays in under two hours. Heroes, villains, kings, servants and damsels in distress, sometimes all at the same time, are portrayed by just three, very overworked, actors. A favorite of audiences and critics alike, this irreverent spin on one of the English language’s finest is wildly funny and deceptively intelligent. Truly, high theatre has never been this low.
Makeshift company members Jonathon Overby, Larry Leggett and Andrew Rhodes take on Hamlet, Romeo & Juliet, Othello and some very ugly wigs in this hilarious romp. Come see the guys take on Billy’s best at breakneck speed!
Performances are June 29th and 30th, and July 6th and 7th at 8:00 pm at the YMCA Durrell Theatre at 820 Massachusetts Avenue, Cambridge. Tickets are available at the door.
