The Complete History of America
May 3 – May 26
Off Center Stage, Grass Valley
LeGacy Presents is proud and thrilled to bring yet another hilarious comedy by the Reduced Shakespeare Company to the Off Center Stage this May. Following the hugely successful and popular The Complete Works of William Shakespeare, presented by LeGacy last fall, Scott Ewing once again directs this three actor fast, fun, and rollicking comedy – 600 years in 6000 seconds!!
The Complete History of America explores the history of our country from its discovery through the years, encompassing the Revolutionary War, The Civil War, women’s lib, the space age, and every other cultural or political genre that can easily be made fun of…which is,….. well….all! Described as what the Daly show might be if it were hosted by the Marx Brothers…. three LeGacy veteran actors approach such important and varied questions such as….who really discovered America? Why did Abe Lincoln free the slaves? How many Democrats does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
LeGacy co-founder and veteran actor Alvis LeGate (A Few Good Men, On the Waterfront, Picasso at the Lapin Agile, & I Hate Hamlet) is joined by LeGacy regular Jay Barker (A Few Good Men, Tiny Tim’s Christmas, Complete Works of Shakespeare, Every Christmas Story Ever Told) & LeGacy newcomer Patrick Moore (Miracle on 34th St). This show is rated PG.
