Arlington Children's Theatre Presents The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged)

This fast-firing comedy parodies all of the Shakespeare plays (plus the sonnets!) in just two acts. Even the tragedies become comedies as the characters run across the stage and keep you guessing how they will pull off the next play. Clever use of some interesting costumes and modern interpretations of the classics adds to the fun. Shakespeare has never been so irreverent, or hilarious.  If you think you don’t like Shakespeare, think again. And if you like Shakespeare you will love this show!    

The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) features a talented cast of 28 ACTors aged 13-18 from four local towns. Performances will be held on Friday, May 16 at 7 PM; Friday, May 17 at 7 PM; and Sunday, May 18 at 2 PM at the Arlington Masonic Temple at 19 Academy Street Arlington, MA. 

Tickets are $10.00, available at the door or online at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/655847
