The Complete History of Comedy (abridged)

Marin Theatre Company
397 Miller Ave. Mill Valley

The Complete History of Comedy (abridged) is your CliffsNotes guide to the funniest people ever to work a room -- or cave, in some cases. You'll see a whirlwind of loving tributes to iconic comedians of stage and screen as the Reduced Shakespeare Company inhabits everyone from prehistoric storytellers to commedia dell'arte performers and the Marx brothers to Chris Rock, boiling down the history of joke making into 90 rollicking minutes. This show is written and directed by Reed Martin and Austin Tichenor, the creators of The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) and The Bible: The Complete Word of God (abridged).
