Performances by The Reduced Shakespeare Company at the University of Herts’ Weston Auditorium in Hatfield next Tuesday and Wednesday, February 16 and 17 have been cancelled.

The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) [revised] is an irreverent fast-paced romp through the Bard’s comedies, tragedies and histories performed by men in tights.

The show, The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged), was London’s longest-running comedy notching up nine years at the Criterion Theatre in the West End.

The University of Herts told the Herts Ad that the shows were cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances out of their control.
