More About This Show

This fast-paced and witty comedy brings to life one of Shakespeare’s most iconic battle-of-the-sexes stories. In The Taming of the Shrew, sparks fly when the sharp-tongued and strong-willed Katherina meets her match in the bold and clever Petruchio. As the two clash and scheme, the play explores themes of gender roles, identity, and love, all with humor and heart. Full of wordplay, disguises, and lively characters, this classic tale continues to entertain and spark conversation.
