About This Event

Dungeons and Shakespeare unites the iconic characters of the Bard with the fantastical creatures of Dungeons & Dragons in a live theatrical performance at the Gilded Balloon Patter House on Wednesday 5 August 2026. The show commences at 1.35pm, with the course of the adventure dictated by audience choices and the roll of giant dice, determining whether the heroes triumph or meet their demise. Every performance is entirely unique, as the narrative shifts in real time based on decisions made in the moment. A rotating ensemble of actors breathes life into this improvised escapade, weaving the lyrical language of Shakespeare with the unpredictable spirit of tabletop role-playing. Ticket prices can be found on the venue’s website.
