San Luis Obispo Repertory Theatre is thrilled to open its doors again this summer with the brilliant comedy THE COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE [abridged]. This fast-paced, madcap comedy features three actors who weave their wicked way through ALL of Shakespeare’s comedies, histories, and tragedies in one wild ride that will leave you breathless and helpless with laughter. Written and first performed by Adam Long, Daniel Singer and Jess Winfield, this irreverent, ridiculous romp through the Bard’s plays was London’s longest-running comedy and has been a favorite of regional theatres across the country since 1987. After 14 long months away from the stage, SLO REP is thrilled to bring laughter and live theatre back to downtown SLO. Welcome back to live theatre!
THE COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE [abridged] runs June 18-August 8 with performances Friday and Saturday at 7 pm and Saturdays and Sundays at 2 pm. SLO REP is located at 888 Morro Street, right next to City Hall, in downtown San Luis Obispo. Ticket prices range from $20-$35 and are available at www.slorep.org or by calling (805) 786-2440.
