THE HAYMARKETSh!t-faced Shakespeare have toured the world, broken America, established themselves in London’s West End, won numerous awards, and survived a zero-star review in The Times. In 2025, they celebrate 15 years on the wagon with one of the Bard's most popular tragedies, Hamlet.
Featuring a cast of professional Shakespearean actors, this quirky production takes an unpredictable twist each night, as one performer is chosen to be deliberately intoxicated for up to four hours before showtime. The rest of the cast must then navigate the play, improvising their way through the unpredictable chaos that springs from their inebriated colleague's booze-fuelled antics.
Sh!t-faced Shakespeare ️are excited to once again drunkenly stomp all over the greatest dramatic work ever committed to page in the English language: the story of a privileged whiny lad who goes a bit bonkers and does some stabbings.
"How the hell did they make it to 15 years?!" we hear you cry. Book now and find out!
Suitable for: ages 16 and over
