Brought to you by the Fringe phenomenon Sh*t-faced Shakespeare, Sh*t-faced Showtime is a combination of professionally trained musical theatre performers and copious amounts of alcohol,.

This year they bring their new show Oliver With a Twist! to the Edinburgh Fringe, an all-singing, all-dancing, all-drinking spin on the widely-loved
literary and musical classic.

So how does it work?

Each performance one cast member is chosen to get mightily merry.

The rest is a balancing act between the songs as they appear in the sheet music and the improv rules, which state you must go with WHATEVER the drunk actor decides to do.

Follow Oliver Twist as he meets an array of cunning and colorful characters in this cockney knees-up with’ booze, glorious booze, featuring songs from Oliver! and other Broadway hits.

Underbelly Cowbarn (Venue 302), 1 – 27 August 2018, start time 22.00 (23.00)
