Entertaining, Funny, Refreshing, Raunchy, Cliched

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.

Great improv, Impressive classical text skills, Hilarious, Interactive, Not similar to any other theatre experience

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

Funny, Entertaining, Original, Raunchy

See it if a Shakespeare themed improv group with raunchy humor, and alcohol everywhere makes you laugh - No prior Shakespeare experience needed.

Don't see it if you expect a full unabridged Shakespeare play; dislike drunken revelry; or, take Shakespearean works seriously and can not poke fun at them.
