Sh!t-faced Shakespeare®: Hamlet

An entirely serious Shakespeare play, with an entirely shit-faced actor.

The five-star, multi-sell-out, Fringe phenomenon is back! With its hilarious combination of an entirely serious adaptation of Shakespeare's Hamlet and an absolutely sh!t-faced actor! It just wouldn't be the Fringe without it.

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 darkest plays. This show features a rotating cast of the finest classically trained actors, partial nudity, foul language, acts of a sexual nature and actual Shakespeare. Please remember to always #EnjoyShakespeareResponsibly.
