Sht-faced Shakespeare US

Sht-faced Shakespeare US An entirely serious Shakespeare play, with an entirely sh*t-faced cast member. Founded in 2010 in the UK and first arriving on US shores back in 2015.

Sh*t-faced Shakespeare® has delighted audiences from Boston to Austin and all over the States with their highfalutin cocktail of traditional Elizabethan theater and balls-to-the-wall drunken shenanigans. Accept no poor relations, pale imitations or paltry recreations, see the authentic Sh*t-faced Shakespeare® show which started it all. What happens when we take some of America’s finest classically

trained Shakespearean actors, a handful of the greatest works of English literature and add in enough alcohol to sterilize a brewery? Sh*t-faced Shakespeare® is exactly what happens. Each night we take on one of Shakespeare’s most exciting theatrical works and one carefully selected cast member is charged with drinking for 4 entire hours prior to showtime. The remaining sober cast are forced to fight their way through the show while incorporating, rectifying, justifying and generally improvising around their inebriated castmate. Currently performing at The Rockwell Theater in Somerville, MA
