The Literary Canon explodes as the bad boys of abridgement unleash a brand-new comic outrage on an unsuspecting public.

Confused by Confucius? Thoroughly thrown by Thoreau? Wish Swift was swifter? Tennyson tinier?

Top of PageBible, The: The Complete Word Of God (Abridged)
Synopsis:
It's apocalypse now as the three cultural guerrillas of The Reduced Shakespeare Company set their reductive sites on the good book with The Bible: The Complete Word of God (abridged). Can bolts of lightning be far behind? Yes, it's an affectionate, irreverent roller coaster ride from fig leaves to Final Judgment as the boys tackle the great theological questions: Did adam and Eve have navels? Did Moses really look like Charlton Heston? and why isn't the word 'phonetic' spelled the way it sounds? Whether you are Catholic or atheist, Muslim or Jew, Protestant or Purple People Eater, you will be tickled by the RSC's romp through old time religion. Remember. . . Someone is watching.
