The tale of Shakespeare’s star-crossed lovers lights up the Pittsburgh sky this July for the exclusive production at the Byham Theater with Sh!t-faced Shakespeare®: Romeo and Juliet.

The Capulets and Montagues wage a battle against one another all while losing sight of what those pesky fourteen-year-olds are doing behind everyone’s backs. Two households, two teenagers, and too much to keep track of! We are sure it will all get better if we add a little bit of alcohol…

With potions and poisons and daggers and dueling and drinking and slurring and wobbling and drooling this romp through Verona is sure to make your weekend a delight.

Sh!t-faced Shakespeare® takes the best of The Bard and reshapes his words down to one-hour versions of themselves all whilst adding a drunken cast member along for the ride.

Access to the after party is included with your ticket. Join us directly after the show in the Byham Theater lobby with music by DJ Inception to keep the fun going!

Warning: Sh!tfaced Shakespeare® is not appropriate for anyone who does not like a string of profanity and a nip-slip or two. Must be 18+ years old to attend.
