Prepare to be swept away on a wave of laughter, drama, and a generous splash of whiskey as “Drunk Shakespeare” takes the stage at The Ruby Theatre in New York on Tuesday, September 17th, 2024. Imagine this: the world’s most celebrated playwright, the charm of a vintage theatre, and the fun of an unpredictable, tipsy performance. Intrigued yet?
“Drunk Shakespeare” is no ordinary night at the theatre. It’s a unique, award-winning off-Broadway show that’s gained a cult following for its hilarious and unpredictable spin on the Bard’s classics. One actor has at least five shots of whiskey and then attempts to perform in a Shakespearean play. The result? A raucously funny, interactive spectacle that you won’t want to miss.
Imagine the thrill of live theatre, the timeless appeal of Shakespeare, and the wild unpredictability of improv comedy, all mixed with a generous helping of alcohol. It’s this potent concoction that has made “Drunk Shakespeare” a hit with audiences and critics alike. The New York Times called it “the best thing to ever happen to the Bard,” and Time Out New York hailed it as “a live-action Drunk History.”
But there’s more to this event than just the show. As an attendee, you’ll be treated to an exclusive, immersive theatre experience. You’ll be drawn right into the action, with the chance to interact with the performers, and even influence the course of the play. Plus, there’s a range of exclusive merchandise, from “Drunk Shakespeare” shot glasses to t-shirts, that you can take home as a memento of your night.
And if you’re thinking, “Well, I can always catch it next time,” think again. No two performances of “Drunk Shakespeare” are ever the same. The combination of a different cast member getting drunk each night and the interactive nature of the show means you’re in for a unique experience every time. Plus, tickets are selling fast, and once they’re gone, they’re gone. Can you really risk missing out on what promises to be one of the most unforgettable nights of theatre this year?
You don’t want to be the one hearing about the hilarity second-hand, so act now. Snag those tickets before they’re sold out and mark your calendar for an unforgettable evening of “Drunk Shakespeare.” And once you’ve secured your spot, why not spread the joy?
