I was wondering how many of you have seen the reduced Shakespeare Company... They are as good as Monty Python! They do Shakespeare's plays, except reduced... and funnier... I Quote:

Yeah, I've seen them in London a couple of years ago. The whole Hamlet thing is probably the highlight of the show. I had to study Hamlet for two years (Yes, I was suprised there was that much to learn too....) So reducing it to 1 minute backwards was good to see. They also do a reduced history of america and of britain as well I think. |

Never saw them. Heard of them though. I'd love to see them. As for the reduced America thingy; If those guys can do a reversed Hamlet in one minute.. I bet their reduced America thing is a 10 second gig... tops! (Does the USA have a history?) :ph43r: |

Love them... do they have a DVD? I saw them in the US on PBS during their fund drive last year, they did the 'Shakespear Football' skit. I was rolling on the floor! It was pure genious. Then they did the Scottish Play condensed, funny stuff.... |

Me? No, it isn't... Of all of the ones they did, Hamlet was the best. Especially the ghost. They have a little SDock puppet that makes funny noises... WHEEEEEEEE! |
