Geneva Theatre Guild’s fall comedy, “All the Great Books (abridged),” is a play that condenses 86 classics of world literature into 90 riotous, laugh-filled minutes. The three cast members use every weapon in their comedic arsenal to prepare their students (the audience) to pass the final exam in Western Literature. Slapstick, cross-dressing and goofy jokes abound in this play written by Reed Martin and Austin Tichenor of the Reduced Shakespeare Company. Craig Deseiring of Phelps portrays Coach, Steve Mitchell of Geneva plays The Professor, and Geneva native RJ Rapoza rounds out the cast as The Student Teacher.
“Every time the guys perform a scene from the play, they find a new way to make me laugh,” said director Patrick Fegley. “Their energy and enthusiasm combined with a hilarious script really brings to life the classics in a way that most audiences have likely never experienced.”“All the Great Books (abridged)” will be performed November 4-6 and 11-13 at the Pat Collins Black Box Theater at the Geneva Community Center on Carter Road. Friday and Saturday performances are at 8 PM, Sunday performances are at 2 PM. Tickets are $12 for adults and $10 for students/seniors, and are available for purchase at Area Records and The UPS Store in Geneva, online at www.gtglive.org, as well as at the door.
