Drunk Shakespeare

Shakespeare but Drunk

What makes it fun

Drunk Shakespeare is a hilariously unique date night that combines romance, comedy, and a touch of chaos. Part improv, part theatre, this offbeat show features a talented troupe of actors performing Shakespearean classics—with one of them decidedly tipsy! That's right a troupe of 5 professional actors will perform a Shakespearean classic after one of the members has downed 5 shots. The ambiance is intimate and playful, with a speakeasy-style setting that invites you to sip cocktails while enjoying the hilarity. It’s interactive, so you might even find yourself part of the story (or the punchlines). Drunk Shakespeare is proof that all the world’s a stage—and a little liquid courage goes a long way.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hilarious & Fun Date Night Spot Drunken Shakespeare Houston What a fun and unique experience! Drunken Shakespeare is such a funny place and makes for a great date night idea. The show was super entertaining and had us laughing the whole time — the cast and crowd energy were fantastic. It was pretty crowded (in a good way with a lively vibe), and the drinks were solid. We bought our tickets online ahead of time, and check-in was quick and easy. The only minor downside was the long lines for the bathrooms, but that didn’t take away from how enjoyable the overall night was. If you’re looking for something different, funny, and memorable in Houston, I highly recommend checking out Drunken Shakespeare. We’d definitely go back!

Do NOT miss this!! We've been to several performances - Drunk Shakespeare, Drunk Dracula and now Drunk Pirates. It's always a fun evening and the cast is spectacular.

Really fun and unique date! The actors were all energetic and engaging and the venue is intimate enough to where everyone really feels part of the show. Will be returning!

SO much fun! Wish they were in Charlotte, as I would totally go again and recommend to all my friends. Amazing and talented actors. Lots of audience interaction and improv, which was hysterical. So many unexpected treats. Very glad I went.

It was great, spur of the moment, or just looking for something fun to do, me and my girlfriend know nothing about Shakespeare and had a great time, we would go again next time we are in Houston.

This was such an absolute treat! The set is intimate and perfect for audience participation. The improv was so smooth! Loved all the actors but Anastasia was absolutely on point! Would definitely be attending multiple shows if I lived closer.

Best Improv troupe I've seen. Crazy talented. The singer was amazing, the impressionist was sharp, the two supporting actors didn't miss a beat, but the main actor (black man in dreads), was marvelous. Best Improv actor.

You need to add this to your bucket list. The play was the best one I have ever seen so far. The actors were great! I can't give it all away but just imagine a Shakespeare play with a lot of drinking added plus the audience interactions. It was the best date night idea ever for me and my husband!

Gotta believe the Bard would approve! Very intimate theater lined by books and with no bad seats. Bawdy and fun, with talented, funny performers that can riff current events/music into 16th century interpretations. If you sit in the front row, be prepared to be part of the show! Most of all, go to have fun. Tipsy works, just alas, don’t be obnoxious and interrupt the show - let the pros handle that.
