Sh!t-faced Shakespeare is embarking on a UK tour of Macbeth but with a twist 🍻🎭🥂

The phenomenally popular Sh!t-faced Shakespeare company is heading to Liverpool's Epstein Theatre with a less than traditional spin on Macbeth.

Macbeth is one of Shakespeare's most famous plays, with countless productions and adaptations dominating stage and the silver screen. The legendary play tells the story of the eponymous Scottish general who receives a prophecy from a trio of witches that proclaims he'll become King of Scotland one day.

The dramatic play chronicles greed, ambition and more. Now, Sh!t-faced Shakespeare is embarking on a UK tour but with a twist.The company will perform Macbeth with a rotating cast, but one member will be completely inebriated each night - the very essence of Sh!t-faced Shakespeare. The company's unique interpretation of the classic will see them treading the boards of the Epstein Theatre on October 1.

Sh!t-faced Shakespeare presents: Macbeth aims to offer a faithful adaptation of the play but complete with one worse-for-wear cast member. Every night before the show, an actor is given four hours to "wet the whistle". Audiences can expect to see wasted witches, boozy best friends, hammered hell-hounds, unhinged wives and more. The national tour kicked off on September 23 and will conclude on November 26. You can book tickets for Shit-faced Shakespeare's Macbeth in Liverpool here.
