One of the most entertaining shows I have seen this year, and a brilliant concept. Fans of the bard, rejoice! A unique experience that gives light and laughter to some of Shakespeare's darkest scenes. This immersive experience uses audience participation to the max. A show with two dynamic hosts who run through all of the deaths in Shakespearean plays, as if it were a game show, with two actors (was three but one died - it's an inside joke)....

A fun and smart romp through several Shakespeare plays provides an excuse for the four performers to deploy hundreds of costumes and props, dozens of fights with a zany array of weapons, multiple audience member cameos, and a puppet show in a fast-paced hour....

Excellent Shakespeare speed run, focusing on all the deaths in several plays. Presented in very creative ways, with a hilarious cast and silly props. The audience participation was one of my favorite parts of the show. ...

The most chaotic version of Shakespeare you will ever see. If you ever thought about watching Shakespeare but with screaming, sex jokes, chaotic props, jokes about sex, audience participation (willing or otherwise), penis jokes, puppet shows, commentary regarding the concept of sex and the issues surrounding sex that have persisted through all of time, and a splash zone, this might just be the show for you.
All four actors are hilarious and very VERY talented. They each have improvisation skills that make the chaos of audience participation that much better. And each show has its own slight differences based on what the audience chooses to do. This audience member has experience in stabbing? Let’s open that can of worms. That audience mem...

Raunchy, valiant, and knee slappingly hilarious, 79 Ways To Die is a must-see this Fringe, especially if you're a Shakespeare fanatic. I adored every bit of this production, and quite honestly, I could watch it again and again. I loved the creativity and energy throughout this show, and with a dynamite cast of Veronica Rosas, Patrick Censoplano, Julie Hackett and Audrey Spain, there was never a dull moment. Well, maybe a few wet ones. And certainly, a lot of death inspired ones. The Interactive elements were ingenious. I laughed my butt off during the entire show....

Super fun and interactive show. Very clever and well thought out. The cast is great!! We went in somewhat of a big group, so it was really fun to watch some people in our group go on stage for interactions. This show was nothing like I would have expected it to be like. I am in no way a Shakespeare fan, but this show was really still very entertaining. References Shakespeare, but you don't need to know anything about the stories to enjoy this show. ...
