Reduced Shakespeare Company600 Years of History in 6000 seconds! From Washington to Watergate, yea verily from the Bering Straits to Baghdad, from New World to New World Order, the three cultural guerillas of the Reduced Shakespeare Company will take you on a ninety minute rollercoaster ride through the glorious quagmire that is American History.

The RSC tackles such controversial questions as: Who really discovered America? Why did Abe Lincoln free the slaves? How many Democrats does it take to screw in a light bulb? History is normally written by the winners... now it's the RSC's turn.

"History has never been this much fun. Or as delightfully mutilated." Bill Brownstein - Montreal Gazette
