Enjoy Shakespeare but too “time poor” to endure the full-length plays? Then this is the show for you!
Three brave actors act, alliterate and amaze in this hilarious romp through all 37 of Shakespeare’s plays in just 99 minutes!
First performed in 1987 at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, from Romeo to Richard III no Shakespeare character is safe during this side-splitting roller coaster ride involving improvisation, pop culture and audience participation, as well as the fastest, funniest Hamlet you’re ever likely to see (the current record stands at 43 seconds!).
“I love directing comedies and this one’s an absolute cracker!” says Director Adam Cook.
“If you’ve been allergic to Shakespeare up until now, this show is the perfect remedy! In a production bursting with comic energy and featuring appearances by sock puppets and sharks, vampires and dinosaurs, severed heads, kilted poltergeists, lobotomies and a fair bit of projectile vomiting, it’s guaranteed to convert even the most resistant to the many splendours of Shakespeare.”
The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) will open at the Dunstan Playhouse from the 25th of March to the 16th of April, for tickets visit www.statetheatrecompany.com.au.
