DRUNK SHAKESPEARE
It's time for some semi-impromptu, drunken theater. Venus brought this time-honored tradition to Finchwood from her old school, and she's in charge. The show is being staged in the Wand Girls' Common room and begins after curfew. Venus put [Character A] in charge of set dressing with little further instruction, and the decorations are entirely up to their whims. Costumes, she insists, are mandatory. She's requisitioned a hamper full of various costume pieces from Drama Club and will dress people up at random if she doesn't think they look suitably Shakespearean.
Before the production starts, straws are drawn. Six are short, and the people who draw those must take four shots of vodka or whiskey. While Venus is insistent that the straws decide who drinks, she's not the boss of anyone, and if you want to share them or foist them off on friends, she can't stop you. She's also not keeping a close eye on the liquor store if you want to sneak a drink.
The cast has a few vacant spots, and Venus aggressively enlists last-minute cast members Adam Ho and Ashton Norris from the audience to play these roles. Look, she highlighted it for you!
Venus has provided exactly one snack, and that snack is an ice cream cake with Marty's shirtless photo printed on it.
» SHOTS: Did you draw a short straw? Can you stomach four shots of alcohol?
» Performances: How'd you do?
