Shit-faced Shakespeare®: Hamlet
An entirely serious production of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet with an entirely shit-faced cast member
“Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.”
Is it the murder of a king? A hasty incestuous marriage? A prince bent on revenge? Or maybe just a gassy Polonius full of beer! Shakespeare’s greatest work gets the full boozy treatment as we proudly present Shit-faced Shakespeare®: Hamlet. This timeless examination of the nature of humanity is performed in under 2 hours, so “To be or not to be” gets answered and you shan't need a nap! Grab a cocktail and enjoy as we prove that though this be madness, yet there is method in ‘t- helped with a bit of wine!

Our shows feature murder, treason, war, violence (personal, sexual and national), suicide, regicide, incest and blasphemy- and that is just the Shakespeare! Our drinker has been known to contribute profanity, and the occasionally bare butt-cheek. If any of this puts you off, maybe another show is more your speed.
Warning: Our show does engage flashing lights and loud noises. Also, for those choosing to sit close to the stage, there is the possibility of splashing beer and being a part of the show.
