Shit-Faced Shakespeare®: Macbeth
2023-10-19 19:00 - 20:00, 2023-10-20 19:00 - 20:00, 2023-10-21 19:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | The Rockwell
“By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked [tipsy] this way comes”
Following record breaking attendance in Spring…Shit-Faced Shakespeare: Macbeth® is back at The Rockwell this Fall 2023!
Fresh from battle, the warrior Macbeth is given a supernatural prophecy that leads him on a path of murderous ambition and insanity- a path enjoined by the ruthless Lady Macbeth. They strew the Scottish countryside with bodies until their brutal, wicked end. Nothing that couldn’t be solved with a few cocktails!
With a genuinely drunken professional actor selected at random every night, no two shows are ever the same. Shit-Faced Shakespeare seeks to introduce a new generation of theatre-goers to the works of the Bard by reviving the raucous, interactive and vibrant nature of Elizabethan theatre with a very modern twist – reminding them as we go to always enjoy Shakespeare responsibly.
Running Thursday through Saturday, September 15 – November 18.

Case 84: Adopted in the U.S.A. (18+)
2023-10-19 21:30 - 22:30
Edward Yoo Pokropski is a Korean American Adoptee. He was abandoned at a young age, and the circumstances around that event have largely been a mystery. In 2015, at the age of 32, he finally went back to Seoul, Korea to try and find some answers. It’s taken him 7 years to fully express how he feels about the experience.

Case 84: Adopted in the U.S.A. is a storytelling show that uses comedy to explore how the media shapes our misconceptions about adoption. Compelling visuals from pop culture and personal pictures from Edward’s trip to Korea take the audience on a journey through his childhood, all the way up to present day.

Edward is a Senior Writer/Producer at NBCUniversal. He has been nominated for a daytime Emmy twice and won zero times. He is also an Executive Producer of the Asian Comedy Fest, the largest all-Asian comedy festival in the country.

T: An MBTA Musical (21+)
2023-10-20 21:30 - 23:00
“T” is the journey of three struggling Bostonians whose lives have been derailed by the MBTA’s shortcomings. When they discover a secret map that will let them conquer the T once and for all, they set forth on a colorful journey that is part love story, part melodrama, part scavenger hunt – but mostly underground.
Since 2021, “T” has been delighting audiences with their musical “love letter” to the city of Boston. Join them in Season Five as they dance their way around everything we love to hate about the MBTA.
