Sh*t-Faced Shakespeare will be trying (and failing) to perform Romeo & Juliet alongside an entirely inebriated cast member. The cast member will be drunk, for real. But let's be honest... most people have to be totally off their trolley to understand Shakespeare anyway!

It's the perfect play to perform drunk as their relationship is already doomed... but throwing a drunk actor into the middle of the Capulet and Montague's family feud is just asking for trouble. But it's nothing that a swig (or two) of the finest spirits can't fix!

Expect some swearing and nudity and enough faux deaths to make daytime TV look good.

Evening Standard: "There is no doubt this is a hoot to watch"
