Watch your back and fall in love in an evening of rivalry, romance and really awesome drink specials.

Three Day Hangover is a New York City theater company that produces fresh, unexpected, immersive, joyful productions of classic plays in bars. We tell great stories and celebrate some of the most beautiful language in the world. We meet our audiences on their turf. We want our audiences to have a beer and relax.

Three Day Hangover's past productions of, The HAMLET Project: Summer in the City, Twelfth Night or, Sir Toby Belch's Lonely Hearts Club Cabaret, and Drunkle Vanya enjoyed rave reviews, sold out runs and extensions, and, most importantly, some of the feistiest, most engaged and raucous audiences NYC has ever seen!
