Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the theater . the Reduced Shakespeare Company boldly goes where few would dare - Tinseltown! America's 'bad boys of abridgement' take on America's largest cultural and economic export (well, except for weapons) in this seriously silly show biz s…atire. Get your clapper boards ready as we rummage through the reels and flick through the films in this riotous carnival of the classics. Giving Hollywood more than just a nip and a tuck, they cut through the celluloid to condense the 186 greatest films in Hollywood's over 100-year history into a complete compilation of classic cinematic cliches - plus a few brand new cliches they just made up. 'A hilarious and speedy take on Hollywood's highs and lows. I loved it! An instant classic!' -B B C 'COMPLETELY HOLLYWOOD (ABRIDGED), is witty and wonderful, wowing audiences with its skillful skewering of American cinema.' -Backstage 'The abundant comedy springs as often from the visual as the verbal, spewing forth in a fusillade of playfully irreverent images and inventively juxtaposed ideas.' -Pittsburgh Tribune-Review Critic's Choice! 'A standing ovation . Genuinely funny.' -Benedict Nightingale, London Times 'COMPLETELY HOLLYWOOD (ABRIDGED) has the kind of hallucinatory sideways comic logic that you find in, say, the films of the Marx Brothers or the early albums of the Firesign Theater.' -KDHX Radio (St. Louis) 'You'll nearly fall out of your theater seat laughing. Spectacularly high energy . an absolute scream!' -The Arizona Republic.

Trade paperback. Reprint. Second printing, 2011. [14], 86 p. Signed by Reed, Austin, and Matt [Rippy] The Reduced Shakespeare Company is a three-man comedy troupe that takes long, serious subjects and reduces them to short, sharp comedies. The Bad Boys of Abridgement have created seven stage shows, two television specials, sever…al failed TV pilots, and numerous radio pieces all of which have been performed, seen, and heard the world over. Since its 1981 origins as a pass-the-hat act in California, the Reduced Shakespeare Company has created seven stage shows, two television specials, several failed TV pilots, and numerous radio pieces all of which have been performed, seen, and heard the world over. The company s itinerary has included stops at the White House, the Kennedy Center, Lincoln Center, London s West End, Seattle Repertory Theatre, American Repertory Theatre and Montreal s Just For Laughs Festival, as well as performances in Israel, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Japan, Malta, Belgium, The Netherlands, Singapore and Bermuda plus countless civic and university venues throughout the USA, Great Britain and Ireland. The company s first three shows, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged), The Complete History of America (abridged) and The Bible: The Complete Word of God (abridged) ran for nine years at the Criterion Theatre in Piccadilly Circus. They were London s longest-running comedies, and the RSC had more shows running in the West End than Andrew Lloyd Webber. They were also funnier. The Bad Boys of Abridgment unveiled a brand-new show in 2010: The Complete World of Sports (abridged), which reduces every sport ever played on every continent in the entire history of the world. It s got balls. They also condensed literature into a 90-minute roller-coaster ride in All The Great Books (abridged), which has played to great acclaim at the Kennedy Center, Pittsburgh Public Theatre, San Diego Repertory Theatre, Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park, Seattle s ACT Theatre, and Alabama Shakespeare Festival, as well as Great Britain, Holland, Ireland, and Sweden (in Swedish! ). They also applied their fast, funny and physical approach to World History in Western Civilization: The Complete Musical (abridged) [original title: The Complete Millennium Musical (abridged)], which toured simultaneously in the US, UK and Australia, and the Movies in Completely Hollywood (abridged), which skewers the 197 greatest films of all time and has received critical acclaim across the US, UK, Belgium, Holland, Hong Kong, and Barbados. For television, the RSC compressed the first five seasons of Lost into a ten-minute film called Lost Reduced, and was a Jeopardy! category in the 2005 and 2006 Tournaments of Champions. They wrote and starred in The Ring Reduced, a half-hour version of Wagner s Ring Cycle for Channel 4 (UK), and reduced the Edinburgh Festival for BBC and the soap opera Glenroe for RTE Ireland. Shakespeare (abridged) aired on PBS and is available on DVD, as is America (abridged). Numerous other TV appearances include NBC s Today Show, CBS Sunday Morning, Entertainment Tonight, CNN s Showbiz This Week, and New Zealand s Celebrity Wheel of Fortune (they lost). For National Public Radio, the RSC has been heard on All Things Considered, Weekend Edition, Talk of the Nation, Day to Day, West Coast Live, and To The Best of Our Knowledge. The BBC World Service commissioned the six-part Reduced Shakespeare Radio Show. The Reduced Shakespeare Company Christmas was heard on Public Radio International. RSC scripts are published in the US and UK, and translated into over a dozen languages. The Radio Show, RSC Christmas, and Millennium Musical (abridged) are all available on CD and from iTunes. The RSC won the prestigious Shorty Award and has been nominated for an Olivier Award in London, two Helen Hayes Awards in Washington, DC, the SF Bay Area Theatre Critics Circle Award, and several podcast awards. RSC scripts are published in the US and UK, and translated into over a dozen lang.
