“My naked weapon is out.”

This hilarious, sell-out, award winning, smash-hit show has already sold over half a million tickets worldwide and returns to Sydney in 2023!

Shit-Faced Shakespeare is the hilarious blend of an entirely serious Shakespeare play with an entirely shit-faced actor. What could possibly go right? With a genuinely inebriated cast member chosen each night, no two shows are ever the same in this raucous, riotous, rampage through Shakespeare’s most iconic play – Romeo & Juliet.

There is no love lost between the Capulet and Montague families and everyone in Verona knows it. Certainly the only way to mend centuries of bad blood is by having two forlorn teenagers from opposite households fall in love with each other, right? Nothing that a swig (or two!) of the finest spirits can’t fix!

Featuring Shakespeare’s dynamic teenager duo, 42-hour poisons, fatal loins, and a few missed encounters.

Shit-faced Shakespeare® seeks to introduce a new generation of theatre-goers to the works of the Bard by reviving the raucous, interactive and vibrant nature of Elizabethan theatre with a very modern twist - reminding them as we go to always enjoy Shakespeare responsibly.

Warning: Shit-faced Shakespeare absolutely 100% without a doubt will feature foul language and some nudity.

“No words can describe how enjoyable this show is. Interactive, immersive and just a downright laugh and great night out.” THE UPCOMING

“These shows are SO much fun, a riotous night out, and an excellent bastardisation of the English curriculum. Once more unto the breach of decorum, dear friends!” LONDON THEATRE REVIEWS
