Erika Macdonald: Tea TIME
Thursday, April 2 at 7:30pm

It’s about tea. It’s about time. F**k off, I’m steeping!

In this 60-minute one-woman show, Erika MacDonald plugs in her electric kettle and makes cup after cup of tea in a way that will change your relationship with time forever... or at least for the hour. At Tea TIME, you’ll be chanting one minute and closing your eyes the next. You’ll cry some, but laugh more. Whistle if you can. Hum when the time comes. Don’t worry, you’ll know.

Ages 18+

The newest one-woman show from internationally-acclaimed performance artist Erika MacDonald (The Barn Identity, Tap Me on the Shoulder) has already started racking up awards and recognition: Artists’ Pick-of-the-Fringe Encore Award at Cincinnati Fringe Festival and CityBeat’s “Top Ten Theater Events of 2025.”

“Definitely a must-see! Comforting and bold... A tea party for your soul.” League of Cincinnati Theatres

“Ideal for everyone taking time to steep, to brew, to become.” - Liz Eichler, LCT Review

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.

Is it the murder of a king? A hasty incestuous marriage? A prince bent on revenge? Or maybe just a gassy Polonius full of beer! Shakespeare’s greatest work gets the full boozy treatment as we proudly present Sh!t-faced Shakespeare®: Hamlet. This timeless examination of the nature of humanity is performed in under 2 hours, so “To be or not to be” gets answered and you shan't need a nap! Grab a cocktail and enjoy as we prove that though this be madness, yet there is method in ‘t- helped with a bit of wine!
