Plot

Complete Works is a half-hour comedy series set in the world of a collegiate Shakespeare competition. Hal, a naive Midwesterner attending community college, has been obsessed with Shakespeare since his Henry the Fourth birthday party. Winning the American Shakespeare Competition could pull him out of his boring life and give him the performing career he has always dreamed of. The only problem: he has never done an arts competition before. As he deals with the crazy challenges and the challenging crazies, Hal discovers that the road to victory is often paved with douchebag-ery.[5]
