A Drinking Game NYC takes a cult 80s or 90s movie and turns it into a live staged reading with a rule: hit a buzzword, a bell rings, and the audience and cast drink together. This month it's Practical Magic, the Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman witch-sisters film, just in time for early spooky season. If you want a group night that's half comedy show, half party, this is the one.
What to expect
Actors read the film's script on stage, playing up its best lines, while the crowd follows along and drinks on cue. It's a one-night-only show with a mix of standing room and first-come seating.
