The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) is the perfect piece for showcasing the virtuosity of the actors of Shakespeare by the Sea, says the show’s co-director Jesse MacLean. “Imagine fitting 37 plays into an hour and a half,” he says, shaking his head. “Something like that means lightning changes from one extreme to the next that require extraordinary team work…There’s everything from sword fights to soliloquies, and that really gives these guys a chance to strut their stuff.”
