The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) at Royal & Derngate

All 37 plays. Three actors. One wildly funny show.

The worldwide comedy hit returns with a brand-new, updated version of The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged), a fast, furious and gloriously absurd sprint through all of the Bard’s tragedies, comedies and histories.

Expect Hamlet performed backwards, Titus Andronicus as a YouTube cooking tutorial, and all of the History plays turned into a chaotic football match where the crown is kicked from king to king. Throw in lightning-fast costume changes, sword fights, outrageous improvisation and the result is a wildly inventive and hilarious celebration of Shakespeare.
