Synopsis
Originally performed by its creators, this 1987 Edinburgh Fringe hit remains the second longest-running West End comedy in history and has been translated into over thirty languages.
The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) is not so much a play as it is a vaudeville show in which three charismatic, wildly ambitious actors attempt to present all thirty-seven of Shakespeare's plays in a single performance.
They have a rudimentary concept of the stories and have imperfectly memorized a smattering of famous lines.
Backstage there's a meager assortment of costumes and props.
Thus armed, the three brazenly launch into their task with an earnest focus and breakneck enthusiasm.
