Continuing this weekend, it's The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged), back by popular demand at Tacoma Little Theatre. Fellow Volcano theater critic Joann Varnell and I were taken with the original run; this time around, Blake York grabs one of three collections of challenging and thoroughly sidesplitting roles. The show is a whirlwind revue of the Bard's entire run of comedies, tragedies, histories and even sonnets in less than two hours. Imagine Monty Python on speed - except don't, because neither you nor aged British comedians should ever take speed. Stay in school, kids. I mean it.
THE COMPLETE WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE (ABRIDGED), 7:30 p.m. Friday-Saturday, 2 p.m. Sunday, through Sept. 22, Tacoma Little Theatre, 201 N. I St., Tacoma, $10, 253.272.2281
