COMPLETELY HOLLYWOOD (abridged)
"A hilarious and speedy take on Hollywood's highs and lows. I loved it! An instant classic! Hurray for Hollywood, and hurray for the Reduced Shakespeare Company!" BBC
"It's refreshing to know that the globetrotting band is as fresh as ever and can still earn a new wave of accolades. The American premiere of the company's latest foray, COMPLETELY HOLLYWOOD (abridged), is witty and wonderful, wowing audiences with its skillful skewering of American cinema. In short, they are some of the best fast-talking funny men in the business." Backstage
"Stellar schtick. Highly skilled sketch comedy artists." Chicago Tribune
"As fresh, unpretentious and funny as (their) earlier shows. The abundant comedy springs as often from the visual as the verbal, spewing forth in a fusillade of playfully irreverent images and inventively juxtaposed ideas." Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

"Inspired, positively side-splitting." Fest - Edinburgh
