"I do love nothing in the world so well as you- is not that strange?"


Our final season at the Rockwell concludes with crowd favorite Much Ado About Nothing!

When the sinister Don John and his troupe of bachelor soldiers arrive in Messina, Sicily love is in the air as old flames are re-ignited and new desires begin to burn. Maybe some hard liquor will help lubricate the process? Featuring Shakespeare’s most reluctant pair of lovers, villainous bastards, mistaken identities, faked deaths, sword fights, masque balls and lots of lovely lovely booze.

With a genuinely drunken professional actor each night, no two shows are ever the same. Shit-Faced Shakespeare seeks to introduce a new generation of theatre-goers to the works of the Bard by reviving the raucous, interactive and vibrant nature of Elizabethan theatre with a very modern twist - reminding them as we go to always enjoy Shakespeare responsibly.

Refunds

Refunds for any reason can be requested up to 48 hours prior to the performance start time (aka "curtain"). After this point tickets are non-refundable, but you may be able to request a transfer. If you are unable to use your tickets, consider gifting them to a friend. We are sure they would appreciate it!

Discount Codes

We believe theater should be affordable. We clearly state any fees up front and we do not jack up our prices only to offer a multitude of discounts to make it look like you are getting a deal. Our ticket prices are reasonable and we are worth every penny. That being said, we do offer discounts on occasion. These discounts are only announced via our emails and our socials. You are responsible for entering the codes correctly and choosing the correct ticket. We cannot make adjustment to tickets outside of our regular refund/exchange policies.

Discount Ticket Sites: yes, we do offer tickets through some discount ticket sites for specific dates. These tickets are non refundable & non exchangeable. If you have questions about this policy, please refer back to the site where you purchased your ticket.

Content Curious?

Our shows feature murder, treason, war, violence (personal, sexual, and national), suicide, regicide, incest, and blasphemy- and that is just the Shakespeare! Our drinker has been known to contribute profanity, and the occasionally bare butt-cheek. If any of this puts you off, maybe another show is more your speed.

But also, we do have sword fights, loud sounds, and flashing lights if those affect your person.

Organized by

We at Shit-faced Shakespeare® are a rather splendid bunch of actors, performers, writers, producers, artists and - most importantly - friends. We exist to produce exquisite theatrical shows, superb live events and provide a handy outlet for mucking-about, showing-off and practicing the noble art of fancy dress! Unlike other troupes of thespian types, we differ in our utter contempt for restraint, orthodoxy, tedium, moderation and sobriety. To be a part of Shit-faced Shakespeare® is to fuck about, play, experiment, step right over the bounds of convention and sometimes even decency, all the while never forgetting to entertain. We are Shit-faced Shakespeare® and we are genuinely tremendous people.
