The Reduced Shakespeare Company is a three-man ensemble of trained actor/improvisers who also conform to three comic archetypes:

THE KID -- A boyish man-child, enthusiastic and a bit naïve, who often says the wisest things.

THE PROFESSOR -- Polysyllabic intellectual type who isn't as smart as he thinks he is.

THE ENFORCER -- Tough guy who tries to keep the show on track.
