They’ve gone biblical, they’ve gone historical, and now the Reduced Shakespeare Company actors have gone Completely Hollywood (abridged).
CAPA presents the Reduced Shakespeare Company's latest production (reduction) at the Southern Theatre March 11 at 8 p.m.
Since its origins as a pass-the-hat act in California, the Reduced Shakespeare Company has created six world-renowned stage shows, four TV programs, and numerous radio pieces – all of which have been performed, seen, and heard the world over.
The company's newest creation, Completely Hollywood (abridged), is a three-actor, 100-minute rollercoaster ride through the glorious quagmire of Tinseltown history.
Completely Hollywood (abridged) shakes up showbiz in an epic edit of movie masterpieces. All of Hollywood’s notable moments – both onscreen and off – are captured as the bad boys of abridgement masterfully miniaturize almost 200 of Hollywood’s greatest movies in 100 minutes.
Starring RSC stalwarts and authors Reed Martin and Austin Tichenor – and featuring additional material from co-star Dominic Conti – Completely Hollywood (abridged) features every movie cliché you’ve ever heard of – and many you haven’t.
Tickets are $35 and $27.50 at the Ohio Theatre Ticket Office, 39 E. State St., all Ticketmaster outlets, and www.ticketmaster.com. To purchase tickets by phone, call 614-469-0939.
