AUDITION: REDUCED SHAKESPEARE COMPANY
The Reduced Shakespeare Company is a three-man comedy troupe known for taking long, serious subjects and reducing them into short, sharp comedies. We have created six stage shows, two television specials, and numerous radio pieces. In addition to ongoing tours of the U.S. and UK, we have performed at the White House, the Kennedy Center and London's West End. We are currently seeking three actors for our upcoming UK tour of THE BIBLE: THE COMPLETE WORD OF GOD (abridged).

Pros from Dover - July 2
 Hello thereAs some of you may know, The Pros from
Dover are off to something called The Edinburgh Festival some time
laterthis year. To this end, we have lashed together a rag-tag collection of
skits to perform up there.
Please help us through the difficult times between
sketches as we scrabble around for beards and pipes, trying not to
leave the stage empty for too long; help us to decide which sketches to keep and
which to leave behind in London as they will not thrive in the flinty soil of a
Caledonian Arts Festival; and above all, join us for a farewell drink, since, if
all goes to plan, the Scots will take us to their bosom and we will not
return.
