The Complete History of Comedy (Abridged)

Reduced Shakespeare Company

They’ve skewered history, the Bible and the world’s most celebrated playwright. Now, the Reduced Shakespeare Company tackles the subject it was born to reduce. From the high-brow to the low, The Complete History of Comedy (Abridged) covers comedy through the ages. Tickets to The Complete History of Comedy (Abridged) are more affordable than tickets to an amusement park, but you’ll come away with the same feeling of nausea and motion sickness. The bad boys of abridgement leave no joke untold as they deconstruct the entire history of comedy in 90 rollicking minutes. Warning! Side-effects may include uncontrollable milking and painful running gags.

CONTENT ADVISORY: In the spirit of Shakespeare’s comedies, RSC shows contain comic depictions of violence, mild innuendo, bawdy language, and the occasional rude work. All children (and parents) are different, so we’ve chosen to rate our shows PG-13: Pretty Good If You’re Thirteen.
