Join TGATP At The New York Shakespeare Exchange ShakesBEER 2018

Join TGATP at the New York Shakespeare Exchange ShakesBEER, NYC’s original Shakespearean Pub Crawl, this Saturday, 29, 2018 at 3pm. The pub crawl begins at Jasper’s Taphouse (761 9th Avenue, NYC) at 2:30pm and moves to The Gaf (401 W 48th Street, NYC), Perdition (692 10th Avenue, NYC), and The Waylon (736 10th Avenue, NYC). Check-in is at 2:30pm at Jasper’s Taphouse. Tickets are $49 and are available at www.ShakespeareExchange.org. Tickets include performance and four drinks (beer, wine, and select cocktails).

This special fall edition takes on the 2018 Midterm Elections, in ShakesBEER’s irreverent and fearless style, featuring pieces from Coriolanus and Titus Andronicus, and mixing in scenes from Fuente Ovejuna by Lope De Vega and A Man for All Seasons by Robert Bolt, directed by Ross Williams, Cristina Lundy and Brian Demar Jones.

Produced by NY Shakespeare Exchange (NYSX), a company that inspires conversation and builds communal experiences through the work of William Shakespeare, the ShakesBEER Pub Crawls treat audiences to an immersive dipso-literary experience that harks back to Elizabethan times.  But it is the ability of the Bard’s timeless poetry to shed light on contemporary issues that NYSX is most eager to share.

 

“NY Shakespeare Exchange is all about bringing people together,” said Ross Williams, NYSX artistic director. “When Shakespeare was writing, live theater was a cultural event for every part of his society. Why should it be any different today? We want our audiences to feel like they have been through something visceral and experiential. ShakesBEER is the perfect vessel for that.”

“…a great, boozy, old time, which mixes the best of drunken squalor with the highest of art. William Shakespeare would most definitely approve.”

By the time the fourth and final bar and beer roll around, the edges of time and space blur, and I feel transported to Elizabethan times when crowds of regular people would gather for premieres of plays we now revere and guzzle beers as a community. Huzzah!” – Paste Magazine

“Whether you’re a Shakespearean, a beer enthusiast, or simply looking for an unorthodox outing, the infectious spirit of the Bard takes over for an afternoon.” – Plays to See
