  • Having performed the Complete Works of Wm. Shakespeare (abridged) show this past Winter in Miami with Reed and the more than capable Mr. Matt Rippy filling in for the dearly departed (no, not dead) Adam Long, I can safely say that there was plenty of vomiting on the audience.

    Fact is, we don't vomit on the audiences in any other show. In the America show, we squirt them with squirt guns. In the Bible, we flash them (albeit with figleaves). In Books, we make one of them dress in drag. noworries

  • I know these people from back I the Ren Faire days (80's) they are great. New tour new show this year... Watch for it.

  • "History is written by the winners... but tonight, it's OUR turn"

    Soo funny!

  • @mjfaulkner But the filming of Shakespeare abridged had plenty of fake puking on the audience by Adam...

  • @metaknightmare1234 That's not irony, it's coincidence. No, wait... it's non-sequitur. Yeah, that's the one. Irony is when things occur contrary to expectations... so unless the Reduced Shakespeare company said in their performance that "American" can be rearranged to read, "English teachers are never named Mrs. Reem," I think irony is not in fact present.

  • Ironically, my english teacher's name is "Mrs. Reem"

  • @LTHSFanpire I am actually playing as Austin...in this at my school.

    When I read the script and I saw how many lines Adam had, and it was tons. So if you want tons you should go for him. I think all of the characters are equally as funny. This is a great play

  • we are doing this for school any sugestions on who to try out for?

  • xDDD

    "3 weeks before he died, abraham lincloln was in monroe, maryland. 3 weeks before HE died, JFK was in marilyn monr--" "--whoooooa!"
