We got reviews!

After starting off the week with an official endorsement from The Fresnan, we actually starting doing performances. Two shows over the weekend, one sold out, the other came close. People laughed multiple times during each, and they clapped at the end. So, we couldn't ask for more right?

Wrong. Then a few people were kind enough to share their thoughts about our show with the WORLD WIDE interWEBs.

So, what are people saying about "Shakespeare Is an Idiot"?

FROM ROGUE FESTIVAL SITE:

Mystical Raisin calls it "brilliantly funny."

Steph says it "just needs a very good editor."

Jaguar remarks: "Certainly not a must-see, but an enjoyable hour."

Acoustic Highway reported that it "got some great laughs."

Blake Jones thought it was "nice."

Walrus Gumbo says "It’s a one joke idea beaten to death!"

FROM THE UNDERCURRENT:

Jessi writes: "It's clear that those who performed and contributed to the show actually know their Shakespeare quite well, and it's also clear that they're having a great time as they parody those who take Shakespeare too seriously (or not seriously enough)."

FROM THE BEEHIVE:

A reader named Chango writes, "It’s the type of show that you thank Rogue for: irreverent, homespun, fun even when not as funny."

(Note: The Beehive itself can't review the show because a colleague is in it, so feel free to email Donald Munro, or comment on Chango's post.)
