The greatest dark comedy of Shakespeare’s age wasn’t written by William Shakespeare. A sexy, shocking romp with beautiful people doing terrible things.
The young and beautiful Bianca thought she had it all when she married Leantio. Then Lady Livia, a wealthy widow, introduced her to the Duke. Bianca chooses the Duke. Livia catches Leantio on the rebound. And despite the warnings of the Lord Cardinal, everyone descends into a violent cycle of lust, jealousy, and revenge.
