The Drunk Texts Finds New Home At The PIT - Full 2020 Line-Up Announced
By: Chloe Rabinowitz Jan. 22, 2020
After three years of sold out performances in the West Village, The Drunk Texts is making a move uptown to The Peoples Improv Theater! The 2020 season features a wide selection of classical titles with a contemporary twist, Shakespearean adaptations that classicize the contemporary and world premieres including a brand new adaptation to be selected by audience members through an online contest.
Buried for years. Forgotten by time. But now, they're coming back to life. Welcome to...The Drunk Texts. Join us as our team of professional thespians dust off a classical text, or a text made classical, in a performance that combines drinking games, improvisation and audience participation. A boozy twist on classical theatre, this interactive evening lets the audience vote on who takes the next shot and even volunteer to hop up for a crucial walk-on role. Drink along with us as we bring the bar to the classics...you may have heard of these texts before, but you've never seen them like this.
