Abridg'd Too Far
The hit comedy podcast bursts onto the stage
Abridg'd Too Far!
19 May 2025
Fast, furious, funny, and frequently infuriating to the aficionado, “Abridg'd Too Far!” presents literature’s most renowned and best-loved books in just 1,337 seconds. This breakneck comic canter through the classics, which has taken the podcast world by storm, leaves out a lot, making stark narrative choices while chucking in a fair number of jokes. Now, world-renowned and very clever Professor of Short Books, Douglas Ullard, brings his Twenty-Two Minute and Seventeen Second Classic Literature Armchair Theatre Company (T-TMASSCLATC) to the stage, presenting three of literature’s most celebrated books that no one has the time to read these days.
