Shake It Up: The Improvised Shakespeare Show
Shakespeare hasn’t written anything new for an age, so we thought we would give him a hand…
Using his language, your audience suggestions, and our overactive imaginations, ShakeItUp create a brand-new Shakespeare play live on stage, complete with live music, songs, and plenty of laughs.
Pick your authentic Shakespearean genre: Epic History, Romantic Comedy, or Gruesome Tragedy! Pen your wittiest Shakespearean line for our brave actors to pull from their suitably Shakespearean breeches when they need a helping hand – the twist? They’ll have no idea what the line will be before they say it!
Then sit back and watch the hilarity unfold in a totally bonkers play that Willy Shakes himself would be proud of. Expect big laughs, high drama, and plenty of bard-based bedlam!
'Quick witted, inexhaustible and absolutely hysterical' ★★★★★ London Theatre Reviews
'Brilliantly bonkers…one of the best improvised shows out there' ★★★★★ West End Best Friend
