Drunk Shakespeare

See it if you enjoy shakespeare and drinking.

Don't see it if you expect traditional shakespeare.

Also you will probably enjoy the show more when drunk. The cast are incredible in trying to immerse everyone in the show. Try to sit in the orchestra area if you want to be more involved in the show. Mezz if otherwise.... Read more Read less

See it if Good show

Don't see it if If you don't like to laugh

See it if you like "improve style" comedy using the Bard as a jumping off point. Many of his soliloquies, and characters, with comic asides, & booze.

Don't see it if you are a bard traditionalist. I've seen better parodies. - And I don't think the drinking added much. Fun concept & the actors worked hard

See it if You want some fun with a dash of Shakespear; better with drinks

Don't see it if You are totally unfamiliar with Shakespear or want it presented in original form

See it if you are a fan of Shakespeare and want to see a twist on one of his plays. Currently it is MacBeth. I recommend drinking a few drinks before.

Don't see it if you don't want to see Improv based on MacBeth.

See it if You want some serious fun! Would have scored it higher if the pun wasn't calling my name.

Don't see it if Not a family show nor is it Shakespeare in the typical sense. Modern reinvention for sure! Also not fun if you don't like libations.

See it if You enjoy revelling in the lower elements of The Bard's works.

Don't see it if you're easily offended, or have lofty notions of what Shakespeare is "supposed" to be be.

See it if you want an evening of total silliness & fun w/a group of friends. A little bit of Shakespeare knowledge helps. Can be messy, can be crude.

Don't see it if LOUD risque interactive shows bug you. They DO work their improv/prepared asses off, albeit messy, over-the-top, confusing as hell, but fun!

See it if you're in a mood to have a silly fun time w/ friends? or maybe by yourself wanting to kill boredom? - Laughter is still the best medicine !

Don't see it if you are clueless of any Shakesperean work (particularly Macbeth-the one I saw -not sure if they use same play all the time but i think so).

Also I like the unconventional set up of the venue (like a library/bar?), the interactive method, and diff't style of comedy. It's a mash up of stand up comic (including getting the audience involved in the humor hence audience impact/ participation/ humor is half the key to the success of show) & amateurish staging (w/ minimal costume/props) as it is not a serious attempt to stage shakespeare really but it was funny nevertheless. Cast is very hyper in a good way, so you would come out maybe livelier after (in spite of, or maybe moreso because of- the drinks you would have ordered during the show). Yes, both actors and audience are encouraged to drink as they have a bar inside. Bottoms up!
PS: I would have scored higher if they played one I (or the audience by voting) would be more familiar with.
Here's a thought : what if they stage diff't plays at diff''t times of the wk & indicate it so we could choose which drunken version of play we would like to see and/or at least browse on ahead!... Read more Read less

See it if you like drunk history

Don't see it if you don't like drunk history

See it if you and your friends want to spend a hilariously boozy evening getting the gist of a Shakespeare play.

Don't see it if a boozy atmosphere is not your idea of fun.

See it if Hilarious shenanigans.

Don't see it if You're not into irreverence and constant references to what celebrities people look like!

See it if you are looking for a fun late night show.

Don't see it if you are not a fan of Shakespeare.

See it if you like to laugh, like improve, and like to sit in really close proximity to others - and the drinking doesn't hurt either.

Don't see it if you really want to see good Shakespeare.

See it if you enjoy immersion, audience participation, and improv

Don't see it if you're precious about Shakespeare's text

See it if You want a fun night out with friends or a date in an unusual space. Acting is high energy and gags/jokes are clever.

Don't see it if You only take your Shakespeare straight or you dislike a bit of "bro" atmosphere.

See it if You enjoy having fun with your Shakespeare and don't have to take it seriously. You like to laugh/drink/and, at some points, interact.

Don't see it if You don't like mildly interactive shows or a loosy-goosy feel to your theater, you don't like to watch super talented actors have silly fun.

See it if you know some Shakespeare and want to have a great time. Still a lot of fun, even if you don't know a lot about Shakespeare.

Don't see it if you are a prude with no sense of humor.

See it if You enjoy making fun of Shakespeare with improvising actors and crude, sexual humor

Don't see it if You're easily offended or uncomfortable, or don't like Shakespeare

See it if you desire an interactive, improv fueled, skillful use of classical text, heady cocktail of laughter & mayhem, it is MacB after all...

Don't see it if not interested in drinking, Shakespeare, having fun, participating, topical references, seeing talented actor/improv technicians work magic

See it if You want your sides to ache from laughing. Want to see a hilarious side of Shakesphere with current political comments and innuendos.

Don't see it if If you don't like profanity or are not able to scream and curse

See it if You want a different type of Shakespeare, you enjoy silly drunken acting

Don't see it if You are serious about shakesphere,don't want to see raunchy, silly shows and are looking for a serious show

See it if you enjoy raunchy, ridiculous humor mixed in with booze and shakespeare.

Don't see it if you're offended by drinking (duh) or cheap laughs scored from lewd jokes.

See it if you want to waste an evening of your time. Maybe my age (61) made me miss too many of the pop culture references, but it was excruciating.

Don't see it if you value your time.

See it if Like Shakespeare and want to drink with him.

Don't see it if Offended by post-college romp.
