SHAKESBEERS SHOWDOWN: The Bard Awakens
There has been an awakening...have you felt it?  The Shakesbeers will flow into us all...but who will win the Showdown of the light side versus the Bard side?

Spur-of-the-Moment Shakespeare Collective is proud to present the fifth annual Shakesbeers Showdown: The Bard Awakens April 24th, 2016 at The Rivoli!  At this epic battle between Torontos hottest indie Shakespeare companies, contestants will face the ultimate test: a cold read of scenes from Shakespeares notoriously-hard-to-read First Folio...drinking every time they flub a line! Get ready for hilarious errors, outrageous rivalries, and insults that would make The Bard himself blush!

Featuring artists from:

Shakespeare Bashd
Shakespeare-In-The-Ruff
Spur-Of-The-Moment Shakespeare Collective
Shakey-Shake and Friends
Dauntless City Theatre
AleHouse Theatre
Shakespeare At Play
Humber River Shakespeare Company
Wolf Manor Theatre Collective


A raucous good time for audience and performers alike, The Shakesbeers Showdown is a celebration of Shakespeare, indie theatre, and the incredible audiences who make it worthwhile, all to support the Shakespeare-In-Hospitals Program. The groundbreaking project is set to embark on its 2016 tour, which will bring Shakespeare to the common rooms and bedsides of hospitals and shelters throughout Toronto.

So grab a pint and raise your voice to support your favourite performer...because trust us, they're gonna need it!
