Brilliant! the Shakespeare 24 hour Experiment is a resounding sucess! A gift from Fresno to Fresno, Fresh, Funny...Fresno. You have to love it (if you don't laugh in Fresno you die crying.) Hope it comes back bigger and more of it! Oh what fools these (Fresno) mortals be!!!
Saw this the first night, and I was really impressed with the whole experiment thing, the whole idea behind it.
there are three plays, and the second one was my favorite, a mixture of 'Waiting for Godot' and Sartre's 'No Exit,' but Shakespearean. I would think they'd make the lines easy and uncomplicated since they only had 24 hours, but they didn't hold back on this second piece!
A bold experiment. Some of it works and some of it doesn't. Yet, major props and kudos go to this company for taking chances and trying something outside of the box.
