Sh!t-faced Shakespeare - A Midsummer Night's Dream

The hilarious, smash-hit, internationally acclaimed, sell-out phenomenon returns to Adelaide to help you enjoy Shakespeare responsibly!

Sh!t-faced Shakespeare is the hilarious blend of an entirely serious Shakespeare play with an entirely sh!t-faced actor. What could possibly go right? With a genuinely inebriated cast member each night, no two shows are ever the same in this raucous, riotous, rampage through Shakespeare's most loved play - A Midsummer Night's Dream.
