Movie • 2000  

Report

Synopsis

Life is short. The complete works of Shakespeare are long. To the rescue: The reduced Shakespeare company, the three-man comedy troupe known for fast, funny, physical condensation of real serious stuff. The wrap up the Bard's outsized oeuvre in 90 roller-coaster, rib-tickling minutes. After warming up with a nothing-is-sacred send-up of Romeo and Juliet, they're off, dispensing with the comedies in one fell swoop (because the tragedies are funnier). You decide after you see Othello as a rap song, Titus Andronicus as a cooking program and the show's unforgettable finale - Hamlet - told with the help of the audience members and lascivious sock puppets. Contains material not seen on the PBS broadcast.

They use the term Transvestite, but that’s Shakespeare for you
