► Video Trailer

A bold, irreverent romp through all of Shakespeare's plays in just 99 minutes. Blazing hilarity that aims to out-Python Monty, out-Simpson Homer, and out-Stooge Curly and Moe. Three brave actors brazenly blend the best of the brilliant Bard with the bottom of the absurdity barrel in this farcical feast of inspired lunacy. A side-splitting roller coaster ride. (Scholars: enter at your own risk.)
