Written by Adam Long, Daniel Singer and Jess Winfeld, "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged)" takes all of Shakespeare's works and condenses them into a 90-minute comedic adventure. From rap to football games to cooking shows, the three actors go above and beyond to take the "dry, boring" material presented by Shakespeare and turn it into one fluid, laugh out loud experience.

The Hope for Change Foundation (HFC) is a non-profit organization that raises money for breast cancer research through theatrical endeavors. HFC became a non-profit in 2002, and has since raised over a hundred thousand dollars for its cause which has been donated to a variety of research centers and hospitals. Hope for Change is based in Westchester County and is run by a Board of Directors, all of whom volunteer their time to keep the mission going strong.
