Little Dickens. Short Longfellow. Reduced Proust. All the Great Books. Less is More.

The Literary Canon explodes as the Reduced Shakespeare Company once again unleashes a comic outrage on an unsuspecting public. The Bad Boys of Abridgment take you on a ninety-eight-minute roller-coaster ride through its compact compendium of the worlds great books in All the Great Books (abridged). Confused by Confucius? Thoroughly thrown by Thoreau? Wish Swift was swifter? Tennyson tinier? Then buckle up and hop aboard as the three cultural guerrillas of the Reduced Shakespeare Company zip through everything you didnt get around to reading in school. Called a trio of Modern Marx Brothers by the Boston Herald and intellectual vaudeville by the New York Times, The Reduced Shakespeare Company is a touring American comedy troupe that performs fast-paced, seemingly improvisational condensations of huge topics.

CONTENT ADVISORY: In the spirit of Shakespeares comedies, RSC shows contain comic depictions of violence, mild innuendo, bawdy language, and the occasional rude word. All children (and parents) are different, so weve chosen to rate our shows PG-13: Pretty Good If Youre Thirteen.
