The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) [revised]

by Adam Long, Daniel Singer and Jess Winfield


Live Streaming

November 20 & 21 at 7pm 


Whether you love him or hate him, this madcap, fast-paced mash-up of all of Shakespeare's wild, wonderful, and ridiculous plays is infectious fun! The show features a clueless troupe of merry actors who are hell-bent on presenting all 37 comedies, tragedies, and histories (as well as a few sonnets) in a Reader's Digest-meets-Cliff's Notes-meets-Monty Python style! What they lack in knowledge they make up for in enthusiasm and gusto, performing these masterpieces in various styles and formats, including cooking shows, sporting events, newscasts, parodies, and improvisation with a little "virtual audience participation" thrown in for good measure. Tirelessly funny, wickedly imaginative, and fiercely farcical, this evening of laughter will appeal to all ages as it helps you brush up your Shakespeare, while honoring and roasting the beloved Bard of Stratford-upon-Avon! So forsooth, marketh your calendars, and get thee to this virtual production unliketh any other!

Avenue Q School Edition

Music & Lyrics by Jeff Marx and Robert Lopez

Book by Jeff Whitty


Coming February 2021!


Winner of the Tony "Triple Crown" for Best Musical, Best Score and Best Book, Avenue Q School Edition is part flesh, part puppet, and pure heart! The laugh-out-loud musical tells the timeless story of a recent college grad named Princeton, who moves into a shabby New York apartment all the way out on Avenue Q, where he makes new friendships and learns valuable life lessons. Clearly this is not your ordinary neighborhood, and together, Princeton and his new-found friends find themselves struggling in the search for adequate jobs, love and romance, and their ever-elusive purpose in life. Relatable, huh? Filled with gut-busting humor and a delightfully catchy score, not to mention a diverse cast of puppets, Avenue Q is a truly unique show that has quickly become a favorite for audiences everywhere. This new school edition maintains all the original production's hilarity and it's fuzzy (and not so fuzzy) life insights, while making it appropriate for high school audiences and performers. Fun for the whole family, this is an experience you won't want to miss!
