All 37 of Shakespeare's plays are performed at a breakneck 97 minutes by 3 actors. The show is fast-paced, witty, and physical…full of laughter for Shakespeare lovers and critics alike. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Reduced Shakespeare Company’s classic farce, two of its original writer/performers thoroughly revised the show to bring it up to date for 21st-century audiences, incorporating some of the funniest material from the numerous amateur and professional productions that have been performed around the world. Rated PG.

It’s 1942, and the leading men of the Oberon Play House are fighting overseas. A band of passionate, yet inexperienced, performers rally together to produce the Oberon’s season opener, an all-female version of Shakespeare’s ambitious Henry IV and Henry V. A hilarious and moving story about what happens when we’re all in it together. Rated PG.

A rousing contemporary musical adaptation of Shakespeare's classic romantic comedy about mistaken identity and self-discovery. Viola, a young heroine who washes up on the shores of Illyria, disguises herself as a man, is sent to court as a countess, and falls hard for a duke. Rated G.
