WINNER: Latest Comedy Award — Brighton Fringe Festival 2015

Sh!t-faced Shakespeare is the deeply highbrow fusion of an entirely serious Shakespeare play with an entirely shit-faced cast member. Side-splitting, raucous and completely interactive, the show has been running since 2010 and has already entertained over 40,000 eager theatre goers across the  UK. Having successfully completed multiple sell-out runs of the Edinburgh and Brighton Fringe festivals, the show has made its way stateside and has been enjoying a smashingly successful run since April with productions of A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Much Ado About Nothing.

With a genuinely drunken professional actor selected at random every night, no two shows are ever the same and audiences can even dictate when the actor gets to drink more to prevent unwanted sobriety. Sh!t-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.

Sh!t-faced Shakespeare in numbers:
· 6 Years old and still 0 deaths
· Over 150 shows performed
· More than 1,400 cans and over 375 bottles of beer consumed on stage

· £179.90 worth of Domino’s pizza ordered during a single show (it was 2 for 1 Tuesday…)
