Details

Synopsis Bestselling comic author Christopher Moore (LAMB, YOU SUCK) sets his sights on Shakespeare in FOOL, and the result is a madcap, raunchy mash-up of the Bard's masterpieces. King Lear's fool and his sidekick, Drool, set about trying to fix Lear's catastrophic kingdom, and find themselves caught up in a plot filled with enough twists, mistaken identities, and sexual innuendos to make Puck chuckle and Falstaff's head spin. Stealing liberally from dozens of Shakespeare's plays, and spicing it with his own 21st-century wit, Moore has concocted an intoxicating blend. FOOL is part MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM, part SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, and one hundred percent Christopher Moore.
Industry Reviews "[A] buffet of tragedy, comedy and medieval porn action. It's a manic, masterly mix." (starred review) (10/20/2008)
"Moore rummages around in a dozen or so of Shakespeare's other plays for characters, plot points, imagery and dialogue...The result is a Bardic stew liberally seasoned with slapstick, sex, groaner puns, anachronisms and plenty of cheerfully curdled Elizabethan wordplay." (02/08/2009)
