Reduced Shakespeare Company Expanded
Here’s a taste of the Reduced Shakespeare Company for those who have yet to be initiated:
From Pasadena Now, what appears to be a legit newspaperish online presence in and around Pasadena, California:
[UPDATE: thanks for the tip regarding Pasadena Now. A lot does change after you move away. Still, always better to be careful.]
All 37 Plays in 97 Minutes! An irreverent, fast-paced romp through the Bard’s plays, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) was London’s longest-running comedy – 10 years in the West End at the Criterion Theatre – and is now on tour. Join these madcap men in tights as they weave their wicked way through all of Shakespeare’s Comedies, Histories and Tragedies in one wild ride that will leave you breathless and helpless with laughter.
They will be performing their madcap mayhem in Beckman Auditorum on the Caltech campus on Saturday, Febraury 6, at 8:00 p.m. Tickets are $29, $24, $19 / $10 youth. For tickets and more information call (626) 395-4652 or log onto www.events.caltech.edu. Caltech is located at 332 Michigan Avenue, Pasadena.

I’ve seen this performed locally and it was hilarious. Sometimes I didn’t dare laugh in case I missed the next play.

Gee, you’re online a lot! LOL — that’s a good thing. Maybe I should post more often?
Get thee to a bookery. Are you reading Timon along with us… um, me?
