$33 & up—Drunk Shakespeare shows in NYC
Watch characters from classic literature test their tolerance… and try to stick to the script.
Why We Love This Deal
Embark on a tipsy literary journey to see a one-of-a-kind performance. At Drunk Shakespeare shows, one cast member takes whiskey shots throughout the play as other straight-faced characters scramble to keep them in line—after all, the show must go on. Players engage with Shakespeare, Dickens and more in these hysterical romps across the stage.
Travelzoo theatergoers can save up to 36% on Drunk Shakespeare shows through January 3, 2027, at The Ruby Theatre in New York. Balcony, mezzanine and stage-side tickets are available for $33–$53 (reg. $43–$83). Craft cocktails are available for purchase throughout the show.
Shows and dates are as follows:
"Drunk Romeo & Juliet" is your favorite Shakespearean tragedy, but in this version, a sudsy Romeo is let loose in Verona.
- Now through September 12
"Drunk Dracula" follows the notorious vampire who’s not so much thirsty for blood as for booze.
- September 15–November 7
"Drunk Christmas Carol" has more spirits than just the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future—Scrooge is also visited by plenty of whiskey.
- November 11–January 3, 2027
Note: Service fees and any other mandatory charges (including government taxes and fees) have been factored into the prices listed above.
