The Complete Works of Shakespeare (Abridged)
 
Rick Fonté co-directed this popular romp through Shakespeare’s cannon with the ASF Artistic Director and it played to well over 50,000 people as the free summer Shakespeare in the Park at Zilker Hilside Theatre.  Rick also composed original music for the show and served as the technical director.  
“This is the only play I’ve ever directed where I really went by the book, because the book works.  Plus we cast the local theatre critic in the role of Hamlet, so I’m sure that helped the show’s reception.”
