THE TAMING OF THE SHREW


By William Shakespeare

Directed by Krista Jackson


REPUTATION IS EVERYTHING...OR IS IT? 

In a world where a carefully crafted reputation is everything and public opinion must be cultivated, the fiercely independent Katherina is refusing to play the role that’s been written for her. Then Petruchio arrives on the scene: a swaggering bachelor who decides he’s the one who can tame her nature – and win the dowry that comes along with her. When their personalities clash, their battle of wills turns so exhilarating it ignites a fiery connection. But now that they’ve found each other, how will they play their relationship to an audience?


Venue Capacity: 600 seats


The 2027 Season is supported by Ophelia Lazaridis.
