The Complete World of Sports (abridged)

In this merciless but affectionate satire, The Reduced Shakespeare company sets its comic sights on the lunacy of sports. The result is a tour-de-farce of vaudevillian physical comedy that will delight every non-sports fan in the family.“It’s a deceptively exhaustive tour, its intellectual rigor leavened by silliness of the first degree.” —Variety“A comical analysis of sports’ childish side. [This] parody of E S P N’s ‘SportsCenter’ … is pitched directly and proudly at the juvenile in sports fans of all ages.” —New York Times“A fast-moving and deeply funny farrago, a neo-vaudevillian sendup that manages to be both merciless and affectionate.” —Boston Globe“Hysterical! [These] world champs of lampooning reduce sports to its hilarious basics.” —San Jose Mercury News
