There are Shakespeare auditions, and then there are Reduced Shakespeare auditions. Perhaps surprisingly, there's not that much of a difference between them. There are currently three Shakespearean plays in the ever-expanding repertoire of the Reduced Shakespeare Company the revised edition of the show that started it all, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare abridged by Adam Long, Daniel Singer, and Jess Winfield William Shakespeare's Long Lost First Play abridged and Hamlet's Big Adventure a prequel, both of which were written by me and my co-artistic director Reed Martin. These are comic deconstructions of Shakespeare's great works, and the best parody should be performed with the same level of skill and commitment you'd approach the thing you're parodying.
