For its second production of 2025, The Globe Theatre Dunedin presents William Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew in a gender-fluid, queer, 1990s farcical fever-dream from director Thomas Makinson, inspired by the Commedia dell’arte tradition and 10 Things I Hate About You.
The production runs 10 – 19 July.
