Welcome to the Drunk Pirates show, where sea legs are optional, and the plank is always a possibility.
After years at sea chasing rumors of Captain Flint’s lost treasure, a crew of cunning pirates is finally ready to strike gold. There’s just one problem: one professional actor has taken five shots of rum and is now attempting a major role in Treasure Island.
As Jim Hawkins sets sail with Long John Silver and a suspiciously mutinous crew, the adventure quickly slips off course. Meanwhile, alliances shift and sword fights ensue, while slurred monologues threaten to sink the whole voyage. So grab a drink and settle in, because no two journeys are ever the same.
Once the rum starts flowing, the hilarity becomes inevitable. Still, the cast presses on toward the treasure, though someone usually ends up overboard before they get there. Will they make it? Finally, there’s only one way to find out.
Drunk Pirates is strictly a 21+ show. We ID everyone at the door.
Drunk Pirates is held inside an intimate, immersive speakeasy where every seat is a great one. The performance space is set up “in the round.” Stage Side seats are front row and get you closest to the action. Mezzanine seats are in the second row, and Balcony seats are in the third row. If you opt for the Royalty Experience, you will sit upon the hand-carved throne.
Yes, the actors are really drinking!
Do you even have to ask? Of course! Order cocktails right from your seat and our full service bar will deliver them to you during the show. A limited selection of small snacks are also available.
The very same. The Drunk Shakespeare Society is searching for treasure this summer with Drunk Pirates! Don’t miss this limited run.
