Sh!t-faced Shakespeare - Hamlet
WINNER – BEST COMEDY WEEKLY AWARD - ADELAIDE FRINGE 2025
The hilarious, smash-hit, internationally acclaimed, multi sell-out festival 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 one of Shakespeare’s greatest tragedies, the story of a privileged whiny lad who goes a bit bonkers and does some stabbings, Hamlet.
"The most fun I've ever had at the Festival. I left with tears streaming down my face & a sore belly from laughing far far too hysterically hard" ★★★★★ - Collage Adelaide
