Talk about nitwits. Perfect choice of play considering your ongoing obsession with shrews. LOL. Good pun with 'troupe.'
Ned's summary of the play is hilarious:So dis preacher got a daughter what's possessed an' he done called all his Eye-talian friends ta exorcise her.

Poor ignorant Ned. In his own way, he comes with some wise words. Let him enjoy the play however he sees it.
This was very funny, and I enjoyed reading it. No telling what Ned will do next.

Ned is wise like the river is chewing gum.
Comment from RGstar
Bravo, Bill. I haven't laughed so much at anything written here over the time I have been here. Excellent. This is comedy at its best. By the way, what nationality is Ned? Me knowing will make the next one all the better. Thought I would come over and support you here as you have done me on many occasions, and I was not disappointed.
Very entertaining indeed, you have a winner.
My best wishes.

I hope the people sitting nearby can't hear all this, or else they might be asked to leave for all the racket they're making. Good luck to Ned to call Shakespeare. Lol.

Comment from Gloria ....
S is for Shrew. I was just thinking about that, and here we are showing how easily communications go awry even when we presumably speak the same language. HAHA Buster Keaton.
Ned and Pons are my new official heroes.
excellent. Let me know when you make millions from your series. :)

Comment from judiverse
That Ned! Can't take him anywhere. It's hard to understand the friendship between him and Pons. In its exaggerated way, this shows how people lack understanding of a play or whatever, but most, unlike Ned, try to hide their ignorance. A lot of people are baffled by the language of Shakespeare. Funny about not being able to hear the Buster Keaton silent film. It's funny how Ned mispronounces the names of the characters. No wonder he thinks Kate might be a candidate for an exorcism. Great fun. judi

Ned is getting dumber and dumber. I may have to go through the other thirty scenes and either smarten him up or make him even more stupid.
-
I think smartening him up would be useless. Besides, it's like they're playing Abbott and Costello. Someone has to keep asking, "Who's on first?" Great work. judi
Comment from Ulla
Hahahahahaha, Bill, this is hilarious. You're getting my last six. I so sympathise with Ned. The lingo really is gibberish for even a half intelligent person. But you take it that step further. I can just imagine it being performed. I hope your script will be on day. Oh, did I have a laugh. All the best. Ulla:)))

Comment from apky
This was Bill at his elements again.
I simply loved this piece to bits. Nothing can or ever will be able to beat Ned and Pons - not even Laurel and Hardy.
An that right to the last word:
Pons: You would have to call 1888 if you want to talk to William Shakespeare.
Ned: Sure. What's da area code.
Brilliant! Was there a Part 1? This is the first part I found, Bill.

Thanks so much, apky. Yes, part one has the same title and is on my page.
Comment from NaughtieScribe
Oh this is so funny it's wrong. I swear this made me think of the time I took my children to see Sweeny Todd, and afterwards I asked them what they thought. Without missing a beat my daughter said she liked it except for all the singing (LMAO).
This was too delightful a read. I found nothing to tweak or adjust. Still giggling. Well done.
