Sh!t-Faced Shakespeare – Hamlet – Penrith

Concert or Performance

22 Apr 2026 Once Only Event

The hilarious, smash-hit, internationally acclaimed, multi sell-out comedy festival phenomenon returns to Sydney to help you enjoy Shakespeare responsibly!

Sh!t-faced Shakespeare is the hilarious blend of an entirely serious Shakespeare play with an entirely sh!t-faced actor. What could possibly go right? With a genuinely inebriated cast member each night, no two shows are ever the same in this raucous, riotous rampage through one of Shakespeare’s greatest tragedies, the story of a privileged, whiny lad who goes a bit bonkers and does some stabbings, Hamlet.

Warning: this show includes a genuinely drunk performer, and anything could happen. This show may contain drinking, swearing, nudity, simulated acts of a sexual nature, terrible singing, actual acts of a sexual nature, and quite possibly – some actual Shakespeare.
