Shrew was the Bard's first stab at portraying the ultimate "battle of the sexes." Will Petruchio be able to tame his Kate, turning the "shrew" into a doting wife, or will the lady hold fast to her wild, independent ways?
This production is a part of The Shakespeare Evolution Series. Join the cast and crew members for a lively Question and Answer session on Sunday August 28 after the show!
