What We Love

Described as a "live-action Drunk History" by TimeOut NY
Fully-immersive and interactive experience with plenty of audience participation!
Drunken improv comedy interwoven with Shakespeare's classic texts
It's a play...sort of...and it's a party, entirely

Description

"Zany, Rowdy and Debaucherous" -New York Times

The play's the thing, to be, or not, or something like that anyway! Whether you are trying to catch the conscience of the king or not, Drunk Shakespeare is sure to captivate, enthrall, titillate and entertain you. Of course, as the infamous Porter in Macbeth said, 'Drink, sir, is a great provoker.' Sure he was talking about impotence and sleep and stuff, but don't that slow you down! At Drunk Shakespeare, one of our actors will down 5 shots of whiskey and then attempt to perform one of the Bard's classics--and anything can happen. Watch in awe (maybe even with a little cringing) as these talented thespians shift seamlessly from one Othello to Twelfth Night to sonnets and back to Romeo and Juliet, or really anywhere in between. Come on though, let's be honest. That actor is hammered, but this is one night where The Drunk Shakespeare Society will prove that some are born great, some achieve greatness, and others have greatness thrust upon them. So grab this deal where all the bar is a stage, and all the players are drunk!

I was happy with the ticketing process (maybe this is what I am supposed to be reviewing) However, I was very unhappy with the drunk Shakespeare experience. The performance was OK but the staff was terrib le, unhelpful, unfriendly, and downright aggressive. I would dissuade anyone from paying anything to support this production for this reason.

We were not able to travel from Louisville to Chicago. Found out the day after we bought the tickets and thus did not use the tickets. Would love a refund?????

Absolutely hilarious! We went from The Blue Man Group show directly to this and we were blown away at the difference. We laughed non-stop, really enjoyed the atmosphere and crude humor. We will definitely be back!!

First time user worked great. The limit for the tickets I wanted online was 8. I called and was quickly connected to an agent and was able to purchase 10. Flowed the directions on the voucher and had a great night at the event!
