Drunk Shakespeare

Drunk Shakespeare is a unique theatrical experience where five professional actors attempt to perform a Shakespeare play after one of them has had five shots of whiskey. The show is an unpredictable mix of classic text, improv comedy, and audience interaction, making each night different from the last. It's a playful take on the Bard that can appeal to both Shakespeare enthusiasts and those new to his work. This performance takes place on Saturday, December 26, 2026, at The Lion Theatre in Chicago. The venue offers an intimate setting for this kind of interactive show, where the performers engage directly with the audience. It’s an evening suited for anyone looking for a lively and unconventional night out that blends highbrow literature with lowbrow antics.
