THE REDUCED SHAKESPEARE COMPANY is a unique
experience. Their fast, funny and slightly off-kilter approach to such
traditional subjects as world history, William Shakespeare, and the world's
greatest literature have won them international acclaim and sold out
performances at such prestigious venues as The White House, The Kennedy
Center, Lincoln Center, and Montreal's famed “Just for Laughs Festival” just
to name a few. With “The Bible” they have taken their irreverence to a new
“higher” level. As they tell it themselves, “We wrote “The Bible (abridged)” when the good folks at Washington DC's Kennedy Center requested a follow-up to our eight week sold-out run of “Shakespeare” and “America”. After workshops as far off-Broadway as possible – Alaska- the show premiered at the Kennedy Center in 1995. It ran for twelve sold-out weeks and received a Helen Hayes Award nomination for Outstanding New Play. “The Bible (abridged)” was recorded over three hectic days in London. We used to mention “queuing for a fortnight” but abandoned the idea because we didn't know what it meant or how it was spelled.” The Reduced Shakespeare Company are frequent contributors to National Public Radio's “All Things Considered”.
