To Drink or Not to Drink? Tickets Now On Sale for Drunk Shakespeare Off-Broadway

The course of true love never did run smooth, but you know what does? A good whiskey. Tickets are now available for the off-Broadway run of Drunk Shakespeare, the popular theatrical experience that combines the Bard with booze. Performances take place at “The Lounge," located at Roy Arias Stages. David Hudson directs the group of shot-taking thespians.

The Drunk Shakespeare Society, a self-proclaimed “drinking club with a Shakespeare problem,” consists of a rotating company of ten actors. At the start of each show, one performer takes (at least) five shots of whiskey and proceeds to lead the rest of the cast in a Shakespearean story in under 90 minutes. Each night is different, but things are certain to get messy every time.

The cast features Tiffany Abercrombie, Julia Giolzetti, Josh Hyman, Elissa Klie, Whit Leyenberger, Christina Liu, Caitlin Morris, Damiyr Shuford, Adam Thomas Smith and Alison Wien.
