Event - To Be or Not To Be

Shakespeare is know to have said "For a quart of ale is a meal for a King" and "I will make it felony to drink small." It doesn't surprise me then that some beer themed Shakespeare events have started popping up around NYC. Currently there are two to choose from.

First Drunken Shakespeare offers a Shakespeare play in a bar atmosphere where the performers are also drinking. This makes for a fun, lively atmosphere.

Secondly ShakesBEER 2014 is a pub crawl between four bars, with performers reciting Shakespeare through out the crawl.

Both sound equally fun, it's going to be a hard choice so why not do both?
