Shakesport at Jones Wood Foundry - Interactive Shakespeare Dinner Theater NYC

A Little Drama. A Lot of Shenanigans.

Shakespeare meets dinner, drinks, and a healthy dose of mischief at Jones Wood Foundry, the British gastropub on Manhattan’s Upper East Side.

ShakeSport brings a playful twist to classic Shakespeare with live actors, interactive scenes, audience participation, and unexpected turns. Somewhere in between the laughter, dramatic performances, and delicious food, you might even find yourself becoming part of the story.

Each performance brings Shakespeare’s famous characters and stories to life, with the audience helping shape the action along the way. No two evenings are quite the same, making ShakeSport a fun night out for theater lovers, Shakespeare fans, and anyone looking for something different in New York City. Whether you’re a longtime Shakespeare enthusiast or completely new to his plays, there’s plenty to enjoy.
