Genesian Theatre presents
Complete Works Of William Shakespeare (Abridged), The

10 Jul 2015 to 8 Aug 2015

Shakespeare may be turning in his grave, but the show thats become a cult classic contains all 37 plays (plus sonnets) in just 97 minutes. As the comedies arent anywhere near as funny as the tragedies, all sixteen have been condensed into Four Weddings and a Transvestite, the history plays are transformed into a game of American football, Othello is performed in rap and Titus Androncius becomes a TV cookery programme. For the finale, Hamlet is staged first as a psychological exploration of Hamlets Ego and Ophelias Id, then performed in a matter of minutes and, for the finale, performed backwards. For lovers of Shakespeare everywhere. What cheek! What nerve! What sheer, heavenly, unadulterated fun! Sunday Express.
