400 years dead and still alive and thriving! Shakespeare’s relevance is not in the least diminished and he keeps inspiring young and old. Need proof?

Come and watch Shakespeare Globe Centre New Zealand National Shakespeare Schools Production (SGCNZ NSSP), where 48 of New Zealand’s most gifted youngsters, selected from our 2016 SGCNZ Regional and National University of Otago Sheilah Winn Shakespeare Festivals are ‘put in cauldrons’ with three professional directors with an astounding result. After only one week of rehearsals and workshops, the students will perform abridged versions of three of Shakespeare’s plays which will make you see the Bard in a new light.

Watch a show full of pure energy, young talent and, of course, the beautiful language and iconic characters who have survived the past 400 years, perpetuated and celebrated by SGCNZ throughout its 25 years!

On the menu this year: Macbeth directed by Stuart Devenie, Julius Caesar directed by Colin Spicer and The Comedy of Errors directed by Kim Morgan.

Friday, 30 September, 7:30 pm, Maurice Joel Theatre, Otago Boys’ High School, Dunedin.
Saturday, 1 October, 7:30 pm, College of Education Auditorium, University of Otago, Dunedin.
