Summary: As an actor -- it reaches a bit far
Comment: Speaking as an actor who has done college productions of both "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare" and "The Complete History of America," let me start by saying this script is just as funny, if not funnier, than the previous two. However, speaking as someone who is performance-minded, I gotta think this one goes a bit overboard. It's not the controversy -- heck, I'm Catholic myself and the jokes don't bother me -- but some of the bits included require a bit more skill than your average person has. What if no one in your production can play the accordion? Or the piano? Or balance a ladder on his chin? And while I enjoyed learning to make balloon animals for "The Complete History of America," who the heck do you call to teach you how to juggle flaming torches? Still, it really is a fun script and I only wish I had the opportunity to watch these guys perform it in person.

Summary: If Jesus was a Marx Brother....
Comment: I have seen the Reduced Shakespeare Company perform this play and these guys are absolutely hysterical! This book provides a very funny overview of the Bible. Even if you haven't read it or aren't Catholic (I fall into both of those categories), they make all of the theology and history easily accessible. You don't have to be an expert in religion to see the humor of the Three Wisemen playing catch with a ball and mitt (birthday gifts) in the desert on their way to visit the baby Jesus! These guys are truly clever, quick and funny and I can recommend this and their other books highly.

Summary: Blasphemy, what?
Comment: The Reduced Shakespeare Company has done it again - I saw this on tour, and it was great! I recommend to anyone, unless your the queasy religious type who may be offended! Also read The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) and the Complete History of America (abridged) ... be prepared to laugh! Techies rule!
