Watch Live Entertainment This August

Who says you have to get all dressed up to go to the theater? This August, have a night of casual live entertainment at one of Louisville's quirky, cool theaters that's got a Shakespearian theme and no fancy dress code, the Bard's Town.

An Evening at the Theater

This is a theater but it's a laid-back, casual pub as well. You can come here to enjoy live entertainment or to get a drink and a great meal. There are various events at the Bard's Town all month long every Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. Come here to watch improv comedy, listen to karaoke or see a great comedy show.

Because this is a theater dedicated to Shakespeare himself, the menu is chock-full of themed dishes and classic pub favorites. Try the Titus Nacho-Nicus, Parting is Such Tater Tot-O, Midsummer Night's Greens or a side item like the Merry Fries of Windsor!

The Bard's Town is on Bardstown Road, of course, at 1801 Bardstown Road. That's in the famous Highlands neighborhood, a community celebrated for its eccentric culture and hip, trendy vibe.
