THE TAMING OF THE SHREW- William Shakespeare’s
The Taming of the Shrew is a fiery comedy of mistaken identities, spirited courtship, and the battle of the sexes. When the strong-willed Katherine becomes the focus of the brash and clever Petruchio, sparks fly in a game of wit and will. Meanwhile, suitors scramble to win the heart of her younger sister, Bianca—setting off a whirlwind of disguises, deception, and uproarious antics. Bold, fast-paced, and packed with sharp humor,
The Taming of the Shrew is a timeless tale of love, transformation, and the roles we play
