"It takes two to quarrel, but only one to end it." -English Proverb
Prepare for a night of of laughs, drinks, and absurd intellectual sparring – Drunk Debates is here! From the team behind the hit comedy Drunk Shakespeare comes a brand new production that promises to be a never-before-seen blend of outrageous, witty, and entertaining.
Two professional actors will debate "hot button" topics selected by the audience every night. While sipping a fine red, a few fingers of whiskey, or a cheeky Sunday G&T, they will expose and explore the questions that burn inside all of us. From the age-old question of "Life vs. Death" to the more absurd quandaries of our time, like whether a hotdog is a sandwich, or "would you rather fight a hundred duck-sized horses or one horse-sized duck?" – nothing is off-limits during Drunk Debates.
Craft cocktails are served throughout the show.
ABOUT THE VENUE
The Lion Theatre is custom-designed for the Drunk Debates experience. Its intimate library speakeasy, surrounded by over 10,000 books, will get the audience up-close and personal with the debaters, while the in-venue bar keeps craft cocktails flowing throughout the show.
If you love Drunk Shakespeare, love debates, or just can’t resist a good time, you won't want to miss Drunk Debates.
