STC is replacing LYSISTRATA with the hilarious COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE (ABRIDGED) to run on the same dates in the Mainstage Theatre, March 11 - April 5. This irreverent, fast-paced romp features three actors performing all 37 of Shakespeare's plays in less than 2 hours!
Why make the switch? According to Peggy Shannon, STC artistic director, "Replacing LYSISTRATA with COMPLETE WORKS makes a lot of artistic sense. It’s comedy-to-comedy, classical-to-classical –and a lot of fun for young and old.” (Translation--it's half the size and twice the laughs!)
Subscribers will be able to use their LYSISTRATA tickets for THE COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE (ABRIDGED.) If you like Shakespeare, you'll like this show...and if you hate Shakespeare, you'll LOVE this show!
