Drunk Shakespeare

Drunk Shakespeare involves five professional actors and one of them has had at least five shots of whiskey. They attempt to perform a Shakespeare play. The show is known for its improvisational nature and audience interaction, often veering off-script in surprising ways depending on the chosen play and the performer’s state. This particular performance of Drunk Shakespeare is at The Lion Theatre in Chicago, on Saturday, December 26, 2026. The venue typically offers an intimate setting for this kind of theatrical comedy, which generally appeals to those looking for a lively and unpredictable night out.
