Great Pith and Moment

Synopsis
Comedy short. "William Shakespeare’s greatest soliloquy performed word for word. If an actor’s worst nightmare is to suddenly be naked on stage, then the second most dreaded scenario would surely be...this! While the groundlings in the pit would no doubt have approved, we hope the Bard’s tongue rolled over in his grave, coming to rest firmly in his cheek". Synopsis taken from the text provided for the film’s showing at the 2005 Dixie Film Festival. No further information found (2006).
