Summary

One professional NY actor has at least 5 shots of whiskey and then attempts to perform in a Shakespearean play.

The stage is set at The Lounge, a hidden library in Times Square with over 15,000 real books and craft cocktails. 5 professional NY actors meet as members of "The Drunk Shakespeare Society". One of them has at least 5 shots of whiskey and then overconfidently attempts to perform a major role in a Shakespearean play. Hilarity and mayhem ensues while the four sober actors try and keep the script on track. Every show is different depending on who is drinking... and what they're drinking! More performances of Shakespeare than any other company in NY!
