RSC FTW!

"Here's the story of a brother by the name of Othello; he liked white women and he liked green jello.
And a punk named Iago who made himself a menace because he didn't like Othello, the moor of Venice.
And Othello got married to Desdemona. He took of for the wars and left her alone.
He didn't write a letter and he didn't telephone her.
Now Desdemona was faithful, she was chastity tight. She was the daughter of a duke cause she was totally white.
Now Iago love Dezzie like Adonis loved Venus, and Dezzie love Othello because he had a big...SWORD!"

Seriously. If you happen to like Shakespeare even one bit, go check out the Reduced Shakespeare Company on Youtube. His entire works, done by three of the funniest men alive.

The Othello rap, the Histories, and Hamlet are my favorites.

The Histories in the form of a football game
