The Complete World of Sports (abridged) plays October 21 - November 6 at The New Victory Theater.

It's "game on!" when the beloved "Bad Boys of Abridgement" return to the New Vic stage with the newest addition to their playbook. Featuring ReEd Martin, Matt Rippy and Austin Tichenor, who presented The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) at The New Victory in 2010, the Reduced Shakespeare Company answers some of life's more daunting questions: Is bowling actually a sport? How about poker or competitive eating? Who invented curling? And perhaps most vexing, can Muggles really play Quidditch? Yes, ladies and gentlemen, no sport-real or imagined-is safe from spoof when the lunacy of sports collides with ludicrous wit in The Complete World of Sports (abridged).
