Entertaining and different but certainly not a “must see”. The performance would have been much better had the foul language been kept to a minimum. The use of the “F” Word over and over and over again took away from what the night could have been.
While they advertised a full bar they only offered beer and wine during our performance.

These guys are amazing actors. They are simply beautiful to watch. They give us a blend of Shakespearian class and modern crude prose, salted with a pinch of sexuality and madness.

Best thing we saw/did all trip. Amazing show with incredibly talented cast of actors. I cannot recommend this highly enough. The show really lives up to its name, and a boozy fun time was had by all. The show manages to be respectful of Shakespeare's story while tearing it apart. The drinks are well pressed and high quality, the seating is a little uncomfy, but this is seemingly down to the venue layout and you soon forget when your having a good time
If you're nervous about audience interaction, ask to be seated at the back - it's a very intimate theatre. You won't lose any of the show magic back there, but may make anyone nervous more comfortable. I was in the front row and loved being right in the mix for all the mischief
