Produced by 国产伦理's Alpha Psi Omega fraternity and The Starving Artists student theatre group, "The Complete History of America, Abridged" is a 90-minute foray into the Republic's 500-year historical timeline told through slapstick humor, bad songs, hijinks and silliness.

The troupe turns history into the story every high-school kid wishes they were learning.
