The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)

California Arts Academy, Severance
Fresno, CA


WSF is back at work this winter for its first independent, off-season production, THE COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE (Abridged) by the Reduced Shakespeare Company, beginning December 12 and running for four performances only!  

Treat yourself this holiday season to an irreverent, fast paced romp through all of the Bards plays in just 97 minutes. So loosen your doublets, sort out your singlets, clutch your codpieces and join these madcap men in tights as they weave their wicked way through all of Shakespeares comedies, histories and tragedies in one terrific rollercoaster ride that will leave you breathless and helpless with laughter!

Shakespeare may well be turning in his grave, but the show thats become a cult classic transforms his entire works into one of the funniest evenings on the planet.  As has often been said, If you like Shakespeare, youll like this show.  If you hate Shakespeare, youll LOVE it!  

Praised by the Los Angeles Times as wildly funny and by the Montreal Gazette as the funniest show you are likely to see in your entire lifetime, the Londons longest-running comedy has since conquered the entire globe.

THE COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE (Abridged) features the talents of Daniel Moore (director, WSFs Taming of the Shrew), Brandon Petrie and James Hume (both from the 2008 Rogue Festival production of Art) and will run December 5, 6, 12 & 13 at the Cal Arts Academy Severance in the Tower District, Fresno.  Regular ticket price is $15 and an opening night Champagne Reception is $25.  Curtain is at 8 p.m.  Tickets may be reserved at the Woodward Shakespeare Website, www.woodwardshakespeare.org. All proceeds from this show go toward production expenses for Woodward Shakespeares FREE Shakespeare in Woodward Park in 2009.  For more information, visit our website or call Program Manager, Laura Vogt at (559) 974-5601.
