Shakespeare anyone?

So I have found another obsession... the Reduced Shakespeare Company! you have to watch or listen to there stuff, it is simply hilarious. They have a bunch of other reduced plays other than Shakespeare: The Bible, All the Great Book, and Hollywood. Here is a sampling...

::Beat Box::
"Here's the story of a brother by the name of Othello, he liked white women and he liked green jello. And this punk named Iago who made himself a menace who didn't like Othello, the moor of Venice.
And Othello got married to Desdemona. He took off for the wars and left her alone-a. It was a moan-a. A groan-a. He left her alone-a. He didn't write a letter and he didn't telephone-a.
Now, Desdemona, she was faithful, she was chastity tight she was the daughter of a duke yeah she was totally white.
And Iago loved Desi like Adonis loved Venus and Desi loved Othello 'cause he had a big--sword!
Iago says, I'm gonna shaft the moor. How you gonna do it? Tell us. Well, I know his tragic flaws, and he's too damn jealous. He's a dupe, a dope, a kind of schmo. So he found a trump sucker by the name of Cassio. And he plants on him Desdemona's handkerchief.
So Othello gets to wonderin' just maybe if while he'd been out fightin' commandin' an army are Desi and Cass playin' hide the salami? S-s-s-s-salami!
So he comes back home, he's got the pillow in her face. He kills her and soliloquizes 'bout his disgrace. But theres Emilia at the door, who we met in act IV, who say, you big dummy, she werent no whore. She was pure, she was clean, she was virginal, too. So whyd you have to go and make her face turn blue? Its true! Its you! Now what you gonna do?
And Othello says, Damn! This is getting pretty scary! Pulled out his blade and committed Hari-Kari. Huh! Do that funky moor thing, white boy.
Iago got caught, but he probably copped a plea. Loaded up his bags, and moved to Beverly. Hills that is."
