The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged)
Performed by
Orfeo Group
Presented by CWT in partnership with
Friends of the Charlestown Navy Yard
Directed by Steven Barkhimer and featuring the Orfeo Talents of Daniel Berger-Jones, Gabriel Kuttner and Risher Reddick
WARNING: This show is a non-stop roller-coaster ride through the Shakespearean canon.
We ask that audience members keep all body parts inside the ride at all times, secure all
loose articles, clothing, and long hair, remain seated in an upright position and hold on
until the ride comes to an oh-so-Shakespearean full stop.
CRITICS LOVE The Complete Works:
"Wowsa."
- Louise Kennedy, Boston Globe
"...[the actors'] individual qualities combine
to equal one terrific troupe...Berger-Jones has matinee idol good looks, Kuttner rivals Buster Keaton in the
deadpan department, and Reddick approaches John Belushi-type mania. In addition to their comic skills, they
are all adept at reciting the Shakespearean language."
- Nancy Grossman, broadwayworld.com
"It's the actors - and some snappy directing
from Steven Barkhimer - that make this "Complete Works" such a good time. Berger-Jones, Kuttner and Reddick
project the shared mischievous glee of 10-year-olds. It's fun to see these three, all of whom usually perform
dramatic theater, let loose in a comedy."
- Jenna Scherer, Boston Herald
"[The play] can range from mildly amusing to
snort-soda-out-your-nose hilarious. Orfeo's version, staged in a picnic-friendly fashion on the outdoor
stage normally occupied by the Publick Theatre, hits the high end of that scale. And I have the root beer
stains from my son's beverage to prove it"
- Louise Kennedy, Boston Globe
Bring a picnic and a beach chair and get in on the fun at this hilarious, rowdy rendition of the Bard's works!
