Thai theatre artists didn’t add much to that record, though, as the May 2014 coup provided a more exciting source of inspiration. And so any new production of Shakespeare’s is quite exciting. The praise for the script and performances by fellow theatre critics made sure I wouldn’t miss its restage earlier this month at M Theatre. Given the rave reviews, the number of audience members on a Sunday afternoon was much lower than I expected. Or is it just that in this semi-colonial state we don’t need to care about the world’s most produced playwright?
