The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)[revised] Auditions
Opening February 20, 2026
Directed by: Michael Johnston
Play by: Adam Long, Daniel Singer & Jess Winfield
The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) [revised] is a fast-paced, witty, and highly physical comedy that crams all 37 of Shakespeare’s plays into just 97 minutes—performed by only three energetic actors. Bursting with clever wordplay, wild improvisation, and slapstick humor, the show pokes fun at both the tragedies and the comedies, finding laughs in every corner of the Bard’s works. Love him or hate him this irreverent romp offers nonstop laughter and a fresh, hilarious take on the classics.
