CRITIC'S PICK: The entirety of William Shakespeare's output - 37 plays and 154 sonnets - is condensed into a mere two hours by actors Ebony Jerry, O'Neil Delapenha and Trevor Perry, under the direction of Charlie T. Thomas. How they pull it off remains to be seen but it's an intriguing prospect. Producers call it an "irreverent, hilarious, high-speed romp" and are careful to use the word "abridged" in their promotional materials; none of it should be taken too seriously. "Titus Andronicus becomes a cooking show, all the Histories are performed as a football game, and we go NUTS with Hamlet," they warn. A post-show Q&A will take place on Sunday, Aug. 13. - Kevin C.

From the venue:
An irreverent, hilarious, high-speed romp through all 37 of the Bard's plays (and 154 sonnets) in two hours! Titus Andronicus becomes a cooking show, all the Histories are performed as a football game, and we go NUTS with Hamlet! All of this performed by THREE ACTORS. It took ASC, with hundreds of actors, 26 years to complete Shakespeare's works the first time (this last time through, it only took us 8!) These three nerds will do 'em all in an evening.
