Winner – Best Comedy Weekly Award - Adelaide Fringe 2025

The hilarious, smash-hit, internationally acclaimed, multi sell-out comedy festival phenomenon returns to Brisbane 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.

Warning, this show includes a genuinely drunk performer and anything could happen. This show may contain drinking, swearing, nudity, simulated acts of a sexual nature, terrible singing, actual acts of a sexual nature, and quite possibly - some actual Shakespeare.

"The most fun I've ever had at the Festival. I left with tears streaming down my face and a sore belly from laughing far far too hysterically hard" ★★★★★ - Collage Adelaide

"No-holds-barred ecstasy" ★★★★★ - Broadway Baby

"Hilarious" ★★★★★ - The Advertiser

"A hilarious, laugh-a-minute riot." ★★★★ – Clothesline

Please note the Thursday 30th April performance will be Auslan interpreted.
