The Atlanta Shakespeare Company at The New American Shakespeare Tavern presents The Taming of the Shrew, today, July 3-20, 2014, directed by Jeff Watkins.
Can three young men attempt to honor their pledge to avoid the opposite sex, food, drink and sleep, for the sake of becoming more intellectual and contemplative? Not in Shakespeare's world and certainly not at the Shakespeare Tavern! After three young women arrive on the scene, the result is far from a blissful pondering of noble deeds and nobler thoughts. Join us for muscovites, masks and lessons about love in this lyrical comedy playing November 5 - 27 t the New American Shakespeare Tavern.
The inclusion of Double Falsehood in Arden's Complete Works of Shakespeare last year has inspired us to mount a production.
Double Falsehood is a tragicomedy thought to be based on Cervantes' Don Quixote. Full of over-dramatic action, cliffhangers, romance, betrayal, friendship and revenge... this is an action-packed story you're sure to enjoy!
