Grab the Juliet to your Romeo or LOL during a A Midsummer Night's Dream at the New York Times Critics' Pick live theatre performance of Drunk Shakespeare. It's part comedy show, part theatrical mashup, revisiting the works of Shakespeare with a hysterical, modern, and boozy twist!
Grab your $29 pulse for a Balcony Ticket (a $59 Value) to this rollicking show, where for 90 minutes, a cast of 5 actors present scenes from Shakespeare’s plays with an improv flair. The catch: one of the actors will do five shots before they perform!
Watch the hilarity and mayhem ensue from a coveted perch with this $39 pulse for a Mezzanine Ticket (a $73 Value) and laugh uncontrollably as the four sober actors try to keep the script on track. You may even find the scene gets interactive from time to time!
Finally, go for the best seat in the house with this $49 pulse for a Stage Side Ticket (a $93 Value). Debauchery, merriment, and endless laughter will take place as Hamlet stumbles, giggles, and maybe even dances through his famed monologue - you will never know what to expect!
To go, or not to go - there is no question! Drunk Shakespeare is guaranteed to be a live theater experience like none other...

"Drink sir, is a great provoker." So is the famed line from Macbeth, and the perfect way to sum up a night at Drunk Shakespeare! Named "The Best Thing to Ever Happen to The Theater" by Slate Magazine, this live show takes The Bard's work and adds in relevant references, taking audience participation, and a boozy flourish.
Dubbed by Time Out as a “live-action Drunk History,” Drunk Shakespeare always starts the same way: classically-trained actors perform the classics with upgraded style, while one cast member downs shots of whiskey - what's next will be a complete surprise.
The stage is set at The Ruby Theatre, a hidden Victorian drawing room with a splendid collection of paintings to take you back to Shakespearean times. This intimate setup will have you right in the middle of all the action!
You'll sip on rounds of craft cocktails from the bar and munch on tasty snacks (for purchase) as the classically-trained cast members throw back a few shots and throw caution to the wind creating a completely new show each night!
As the drinks flow, both on stage and in the audience, the revelry is only heightened. Prepare to laugh until your cheeks hurt, get swept up in the rowdiness, and cheers to a wildly unforgettable evening...
