Drunk Shakespeare
Comedy, Improv
Runs May 03 - Dec 31, 2023
The stage is set in a hidden venue. Five professional actors meet as members of The Drunk Shakespeare Society. One of them has 5 shots of whiskey and then attempts to perform a major role in a Shakespearean play. Hilarity and mayhem ensue while the four sober actors try and keep the script on track. Every show is different depending on who is drinking... and what they're drinking! Craft cocktails are available for purchase throughout the show.
