Get ready for a hilarious take on Shakespeare during this unique, 90-minute show in downtown Phoenix. Located in a hidden library speakeasy at The Rose Theatre, this quirky performance showcases an intoxicated cast member. One classically-trained actor has at least five shots of whiskey and then attempts to perform in a Shakespearean play. The results are what Slate magazine describes as ‘the best thing to ever happen to the theater.’ Craft cocktails are available for purchase during the show and there is a special treat upon arrival. 21+ ONLY

On this particular night, they did Drunk Pirates instead of Drunk Shakespeare. No matter, we still had fun!
We could not hear the dialogue because the sound was distorted. Though the show takes place in a small theater the acoustics were bad. So every now and then we caught a word but that was it. Also, the guy who was supposed to be drunk didn't seem drunk.
Great entertainment. Went in not knowing what it was and left so glad we were there. Spontaneous and comical. The actors performances made the evening
So funny! Impressed with how well the actors did with what they were given. Would definitely see again
Phenomenal show! The venue was decorated to match the show (Treasure Island, for me) and immediately brought you into the world of Shakespeare. You'll be able to see everything no matter where you are seated. There's even some audience participation, which I was not expecting! Staff were helpful and kind, the venue was clean, and overall it was a great time.
This was super-fun! The staff was very talented and we were laughing the whole time. I was an English major and my husband is not literary but we both enjoyed it so much.
Very fun experience. We loved it. The actors did an excellent job. Would plan to eat before hand as food was mostly just snacks
What a great, talented group of individuals who are so passionate about what they do and also truly know how to have a good time! Not a bad seat in the house, drink service at your seat was a pleasant surprise, and I thought the ticket price was incredibly fair for the experience delivered. Lots of laughs shared in a comfortable environment! I would definitely recommend this to someone and will plan to keep an eye out for new acts coming.
This was wildly funny and entertaining! I enjoyed every minute of it. In spite of 6 shots and wine and maybe some other liquor, our drunk actor put on a great show, along with the others.
It was a great event. I love it when the use the audience to interact. The only thing is the direction should have been clear especially because I was out of town and didn't know the area.
