Shakespeare in the Pub

Shakespeare in the Pub Part staged reading, part improv, half-rehearsed and wholly off the rails since 2013.

We clown on classical plays in bars, because they’re royalty-free and the playwright usually isn’t around to get mad about it.

Our basement bar, Under the Barrel, is getting a glow up. We’re keeping the details under wraps for now, but you can be among the first to experience it when it debuts at our Derby Day Party next Saturday!

And that's a wrap on Shakespeare in the Pub, 2025!
We'll be back in 2026 starting off strong with everyone's favorite Happy Valentine's Love Story: Romeo and Juliet 💕🍺 (The OG Heated Rivals?????)
+If you want to see more of your fav plays desecrated, we highly suggest joining our Patreon so we can pay these degenerates more. That said, shows will alway be free. Only rule is, (say it with me folks!) tip your f@&king bartender.
Happy New Year, you sickos.

With love,
SitP
