Written by Adam Long, Reed Martin, and Austin Tichenor and directed by Dr. Laurie Wolf, this fast-paced comedy races through more than six centuries of American history in just ninety minutes, covering everything from Columbus to the Constitution, the Wild West to Watergate. The production features Jimmy Weinstein, Bridget Wolf, and Murphy Scherer, embracing the signature style of the Reduced Shakespeare Company with rapid-fire costume changes, physical comedy, improvisation, and irreverent wit. Presented by Richmond Shakespeare in partnership with William & Mary's Arts Quarter, the show celebrates America's 250th anniversary.
