Our job: present Shakespeare's timeless comedy, A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Your job: screw it up.

Have you ever thought, wow, Shakespeare would be a lot more interesting if everyone had taken a few shots before they started? Have you ever wanted to punish theatre kids for their audacity? Have you ever watched Food Network's Cutthroat Kitchen and thought, “this would be the perfect formula for a night of classical theatre”? Well, you're in luck!

After last year's wildly unpredictable and hilarious Much Fear Shakespeare: Macbeth, we're back with more Shakespearean chaos!

At Much Fear Shakespeare, you get to call the shots - no really, the literal shots. Want to make Oberon use an Australian accent? Send Nick Bottom a shot? Make Titania stand on her head*? Well, now's your chance! (*Titania may or may not be able to stand on her head). 

$15 gets you admission to the most chaotic show in town. Sabotage vouchers (to be used whenever YOU please) will go on sale prior to the event and be available at the door. All proceeds go to creating more scrappy Shakespearean magic in 2025!

Drinks available to purchase from Trophy Brewing.

We have no idea how this show is going to go - we live in fear (much fear) of the chaos YOU will cause!

Scrap Paper Shakespeare is a scrappy troupe of Shakespeare lovers, dedicated to creating quality, professional theatre for audiences in the Triangle of North Carolina.

Our seasons include the works of William Shakespeare, lesser-performed classical plays, and original works inspired by classic stories.

We believe that classical theatre can and should be accessible, whether you're a Shakespeare pro or you slept through high school English class.

Up Next: The Two Gentlemen of Verona coming spring 2025!
