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

What could possibly go wrong?

They strew the Scottish countryside with bodies until their brutal, wicked end. Nothing that couldn’t be solved with a few cocktails!

Boston, MA, 5/10/2026 - For over a decade, Sh*t-faced Shakespeare has been offering Boston 60-70 minute shows of unparalleled chaos. In that time, we have developed local Boston talent and taken our boozy, b***y brilliance on the road and packed venues from Portland to Palm Beach.

But these shows are longer- they even have a (gasp) INTERMISSION! And now for the first time in Boston we are putting up our version of what we do on the road. MACBETH is our touring show for the 26-27 season and we are doing a limited run of it this June at The Rockwell. We can’t say for certain that it will be twice as good as our hour-long shows but it will be roughly twice as long, and length is important to some people. Raising a glass, raising Hell, baring our bottoms (occasionally), these are the things we are good at! Over-charging our fans is not. Tickets are $37.88 -$43 - affordability has ALWAYS been a priority for us! Fridays will be 18+ if you happen to be a college student looking for SOMETHING to do when the relatives come to visit.

MACBETH opens June 12 2026 and runs for 6 shows only, Fridays and Saturdays closing June 27 2026 at The Rockwell Theater, 255 Elm Street Somerville MA, 02144. Tickets on sale NOW at Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/cc/sh*t-faced-shakespeare-macbeth-1168089
