Few people can claim to love Shakespeare as much as Jobsite’s David Jenkins. I mean, few people except the three of you I know are reading this and screaming that you love him, too. But Jenkins is special, because in addition to his theater company, Jobsite, producing at least one Shakespeare play a year, they’re also bringing back The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) [Revised] for the second time in 15 years. Since this play mushes all 37 Shakespeare plays (and some sonnets) into 90 minutes, even if you saw the first go-round way back when, it’ll feel brand new.
The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) [Revised] | Jobsite at the Straz Center, 1010 N. WC MacInnes Place, Tampa | Through Apr. 7: Thus.-Sat., 8 p.m.; Sat. & Sun., 2 p.m. | $29.50, demand-dependent | jobsitetheater.org
