Ad-Rap-Tation, hip-hop theatre retelling of Shakespeare's The
Comedy of Errors. It was nominated for Best Lyrics at the Drama
Desk Awards, nominated for Outer Critics Circle Awards, and
received the Jefferson Award in Chicago and the Grand Jury Prize at
the HBO US Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen.The show lasts one hour
and thirty minutes and is part play and part rap concert."This
energetic twist on Shakespeare's The Comedy of Errors is a thrill,
GRADE: A " -Entertainment Weekly"This fantastic show is one of the
most entertaining, slick and inventive you'll see on the Fringe
this year-and it has some clever insights to shed on the Bard's
classic farce too. . .Does what so many productions fail to do-it
makes Shakespeare funny. Not just chuckling,
yes-I-see-this-part-is-meant-to-be-comical funny, but laugh out
loud, hollering and cheering funny. . .The language is as clever,
sharp and twisty as Shakespeare's." -Edinburgh Evening News
"Nothing short of brilliant. Clever writing, rhythmic flow, witty
musical allusions and intelligent humor...the show is thoroughly
entertaining." -MTV"A rap version of Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors
that pulses with wit, savvy and a sublime sense of its own
ridiculousness. . .You'll be enchanted." -The Telegraph "Bomb-itty
is witty, lewd and altogether new. Think 'The Beastie Boys from
Syracuse'." -The New Yorker "A stroke of genius. . .the language
fizzes with new life, it's irreverent and yet in tune with
Shakespeare's original, it's clever and witty and fast." -The Times
"Bomb-itty of Errors' gives the bard's slapstick farce a
Generation-Y rejuvenation...scores very high on sexy-party
index...You're carried along by the energetic tumble of words."
-The Wall Street Journal
