Opening February 13th!
The Complete History of America (abridged)
by Adam Long, Reed Martin, and Austin Tichenor
The Complete History of America (abridged) condenses 600+ years of American history into 90 minutes of pure comedic chaos. Whether it’s the Revolutionary War, the Wild West, or the Space Race, no era is safe from the cast’s hilarious antics. This production promises to be a rollicking good time for history buffs and comedy lovers alike. Newly updated for the 2024 election, this Election Edition provides the requisite historical context guaranteed to confuse any voter and make you the life of your next party – whatever party!
From Washington to Watergate, yea verily from the Bering Straits to Baghdad, from New World to New World Order – The Complete History of America (abridged) is a rollercoaster ride through the glorious quagmire that is American History, reminding us that it’s not the length of your history that matters – it’s what you’ve done with it!
These three cultural guerillas tackle such controversial questions as:
• Who really discovered America?
• Shouldn’t there be a Bill of Wrongs as well as a Bill of Rights?
• How many Democrats does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
“History is normally written by the winners… now it’s our turn.”

The Cast
Marshall Paddon’s Super Secret Syndicate
Founded in 2014, Marshall Paddon’s Super Secret Syndicate (MPSSS) is the ultimate fusion of comedy, mystery, and theatrical brilliance. Shrouded in secrecy, its members remain anonymous, their identities a carefully guarded enigma—because, as they’ve always insisted, who they are doesn’t matter. What truly matters is the shared experience of laughter, absurdity, and artistic wonder that unfolds during their performances.
Specializing in comedic performances that blend slapstick, absurdist humor, and the sharpest wit, MPSSS has taken the world by storm. Audiences find themselves transported into a world of unpredictable antics-whether it’s a show where the punchline of every joke is a ridiculous plot twist or a comedic opera that turns the stage into a carnival of chaos. One infamous production had the entire cast performing with inflatable animals, while another saw the audience tricked into thinking the show had been canceled, only to discover the performers perched on a human pyramid delivering their jokes through a giant pizza stack.
Rumors swirl about the troupe’s origins: some say it was founded by an ex-CIA agent who can juggle flaming swords, while others claim one of the members once hosted an entire comedy show using only mime. But the truth, according to MPSSS, is far less important than the laughter they create. What they want you to know is simple: forget about who’s behind the curtain. It’s the evening at the theatre —the shared moment of joy and the infectious, unpredictable hilarity-that matters most.
Content Advisory:
This show contains comic depictions of violence, mild innuendo, bawdy language, and the occasional rude word. All children (and parents) are different, so we’ve chosen to rate our shows PG-13: Pretty Good If You’re Thirteen
