THE COMPLETE HISTORY OF COMEDY (ABRIDGED) presented by Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park through Dec. 29.

Although in production, this world premiere by the Reduced Shakespeare Company is still a work in progress. Comedy-wise, the show is a bit uneven with just as many highlights as flat-liners. It feels like the actors are still finding their footing with the show and refining some of the material. Consider this run a shakedown cruise that you can be a part of and enjoy the ride.

My rating: 3 out of 5
