Whether you are Catholic or Protestant, Muslim or Jew, Atheist or Jedi, you will be tickled by the Reduced Shakespeare Company\u2019s romp through old time religion.<\/p>\n The Reduced Shakespeare Company is a three-man comedy troupe that takes long, serious subjects and reduces them to short, sharp comedies. Since 1981, \u2018The Bad Boys of Abridgement\u2019 have created eight stage shows, two television specials and numerous radio pieces \u2013 all of which have been performed, seen, heard and translated into Klingon the world over.<\/p>\n The company\u2019s first three shows, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)<\/em>, The Complete History of America (abridged)<\/em> and The Bible: The Complete Word of God (abridged)<\/em> enjoyed a nine-year run at the Criterion Theatre in Piccadilly Circus. Not only were they London\u2019s longest-running comedies, but at one point the Reduced Shakespeare Company had more shows running in the West End than Andrew Lloyd Webber. Some of them were funnier too\u2026<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n And comedy fans will think they\u2019re in heaven as ticket prices for The Reduced Shakespeare Company are \u00a316 and \u00a314. The Reduced Shakespeare Company visit Theatre at The Mill for two nights on Wednesday 29 and Thursday 30 January.
