On the Event:
‘Tis no ordinary performance, dear patrons, but a merry jest upon the Bard himself! Under the title “Shakes-Parody in the Park,” the Trebuchet Players shall present “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged).” This lively and uproarious play doth take all 37 of Master Shakespeare’s works and distill them into a single evening’s frolicsome entertainment. Prepare to be whisked away on a whirlwind of comedy and farce as the Players dost lampoon the tales of yore with wit most sharp and humor most bounteous.
On the Play:
Hark! “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)” was first conceived by the wise and mirthful minds of the Reduced Shakespeare Company in the year of our Lord 1987. Since that time, it hath spread its laughter across the globe, delighting the hearts of all who witness its jest. With but three actors taking the stage, each doth portray a multitude of characters, weaving the Bard’s tales with a quickness and cunning most admirable. From the star-crossed lovers of Verona to the tragic Prince of Denmark, no tale is left untouched by their mischievous hands.
