Three hit monologues. "There's nothing wrong with having fun in the theatre, especially when Shakespeare is the subject ... I'd give it an 'A.'" Michael Lazan, Backstage (New York) Teaching Shakespeare: A Trilogy tells the story of Dr. Keir's descent from tenure-track college Shakespeare professor (Teaching Shakespeare), down to community college, adult education lecturer (Teaching Detroit), and finally to high school substitute teacher (Teaching As You Like It). "A very funny, often cutting and totally engaging work ... formidably delightful." Doug DeVita, Off-Off Broadway Review (New York) "Teaching Shakespeare is playing to sold out houses for a good reason. It's a very funny, witty, well-acted show. I loved it.... It's a brilliant way to spend an hour. Go early, tickets are selling out quickly." Sam Mooney, Mooney on Theatre. "In Cutler's laugh-a-minute classroom parody, he is 'Teaching Shakespeare.' . . . Even while being pompous, he seems pathetic - a difficult feat and one that generates laugh after laugh. . . . gloriously funny . . . . Shakespeare haters will get the joke. And Shakespeare lovers - if they have a sense of humor - will be rolling in the aisles. Matthew J. Palm, Orlando Sentinel.
