A typically brash Shakespeare once declared “All the world's a stage” before frantically contacting his contractor to verify that global stage construction had indeed begun. Snag a seat to the universal theater with today's Groupon: for $35, you get two tickets and two glasses of wine or beer at Orlando Shakespeare Theater, located on East Rollins Street (an $84 value). This Groupon is good for any one evening performance of three upcoming productions. Partnered with the University of Central Florida, Orlando Shakespeare Theater showcases the Bard’s works as well as plays from other top-notch playwrights. Witness the whimsical magic of A Midsummer Night's Dream(January 26-March 19), make a good first impression with Pride and Prejudice(February 9-March 20), or practice beast-summoning battle cries during Beowulf(February 23-March 20). Keep eyes riveted on the passionate performances while attaching mouths to two glasses of wine or beer for you and your significant other, acting class partner, or life-sized cardboard cutout.

- I have been to independent productions as well as the Fringe Festival at the Orlando Shakes. I am always pleased with the intimate staging and overall quality of the theater. – Marci L., Yelp
- I've seen two plays here and both were terrific. The casts were talented and very friendly. Some members even spent time talking with the patrons after the show. – Helen R., Yelp
