The History Of Comedy (abridged)

They've skewed history, the Bible and the world's most celebrated playwright, now the Reduced Shakespeare Company tackles the subject it was born to reduce. From the high-brow to the low, The Complete History Of Comedy (abridged) covers comedy through the ages, from Aristophanes and Shakespeare to Moliere (Is Moliere funny? Why not?) to Vaudeville and Charlie Chaplin to The Daily Show and Nick Clegg (Is Nick Clegg funny? Why not?). From cavemen telling 'Rock, Rock' jokes, to Chris Rock and everything in between, the bad boys of abridgement leave no joke untold as they deconstruct the entire history of comedy in 90 rollicking minutes.

Written and directed by Reed Martin and Austin Tichenor.
