When do you get a chance to see all of Shakespeare’s 37 plays in one evening? Right Now!
Fells Point Corner Theater presents the phenomenally popular parody THE COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE (ABRIDGED!), which premiered at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and has become one of the world’s most popular and hilarious of stage comedies in both Europe and the United States.
The Complete Works is a side-splitting, fast-paced romp through the Bard’s extensive playbook where three (that’s right, three!) zany players in tights weave their wacky way through all Comedies, Histories, and Tragedies in one wild evening.
“Shakespeare as written by Groucho Marx, acted by Monty Python, and performed at the speed of the minute waltz. So forsooth! Get thee to the delightfully fractured Complete Works.”
Los Angeles Harald
“If you love Shakespeare, you’ll love this play! If you hate Shakespeare, you’ll love this play!”

"All three had impeccable comic timing, wonderful stage presence, and an energy level to kill for. Director Howard Berkowitz put together a great team to play out this comedy of errors, so to speak, so to speak."
