Reed Martin

The Complete World of Sports (Abridged) Reed Martin

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
