Promenade Playhouse (Santa Monica, CA)
In this madcap comedy from Santa Monica Rep, three guys in tights set out to perform all 37 of the Bard’s plays in less than 100 minutes, with hilarious results. Shakespeare’s classics undergo some changes, of course. Titus Andronicus becomes a cooking show, Othello is summarized in rap, Macbeth turns from tragedy into broad comedy and Hamlet is pared down to less than a minute. Originally created by the Reduced Shakespeare Company and first performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the show ran for almost a decade in London and has since traveled all over the world before landing here at Santa Monica’s Promenade Playhouse.
