Prepare for 97 minutes of non-stop laughter as The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) delivers an irreverent, fast-paced romp through all 37 of Shakespeare’s plays as you’ve never seen them before.

This globally acclaimed production, nominated for the Time Out Dubai Nightlife Award for Best Production, is back with extra Shakespeary bits and brand-new (still rubbish) gags for 2025!

 

What’s in store? Othello as a rap song, Titus Andronicus reimagined as a cooking show, and The Histories transformed into an American football game – it’s Shakespeare that would make the great man turn in his grave – with a grin on his face! Sit through Hamlet for four hours? No need – catch it performed backward in half a minute!

The show played to sell-out audiences, and now it’s your turn to experience the world’s greatest bard-busters as they unleash madness and mayhem in bucketfuls Shakespeare has never been so fast, furious, and downright fun!

Don’t miss the most outrageous take on Shakespeare ever staged.
