Can Trojan War hero Odysseus return home before his wife is forced to marry again?

A Guest Review by Alan Stafford The Reduced Shakespeare Company (RSC, for short!) have been presenting their distinctive brand of bite-sized Bard ever since their 1981 debut in California. Their frenetic forays through the First Folio have enlivened many an Edinburgh Fringe (where I first encountered them) and they subsequently enjoyed a West End residency of nine years. Now a fresh new trio of actors, under the direction of founder RSC writer/performer Adam Long, stop off for a week in Ipswich in a touring production originating from The Theatre Chipping Norton (which sounded so made-up I had to check it was real).

Elliot Levey and Reece Shearsmith star in Alan Bennett’s sparkling tragi-comedy.
