Pop Up Shakes

Shakespeare meets Happy Hour during these interactive, enhanced staged readings of

the Bard’s beloved plays.

​​

With 8 professional actors, a 2 hour cut of Shakespeare's text, and a scrappy array of props and costume pieces, ​ we deliver

audience participation, drinking games, and stirring (slightly tipsy) performances.

​

Over the past year our ShakesBEER Reading Series has been selling out The Alley Stage's comedy club in Marietta, GA with a new show each month.  In June we will share ShakesBEER with audiences in Norcross, GA via a new partnership with Lionheart Theatre.

You are invited inside the play with these immersive experiences of Shakespeare's best plays brought to life in non-traditional spaces. 

​

Whether it is learning to dance through Juliet's Ball under the stars,

or exploring a historic home populated with Hamlet's most compelling characters and scenes, our Pop Up Shakes performances create a night

you'll wish would never end.

Mainstage Theatre
