All’s fair in the war of love
Sweet-natured Bianca has her choice of suitors, but there’s a problem: she can’t get married until her older sister, Kate, also gets hitched. And Kate—strong-willed, sharp-tongued—is not onboard with any of that. When a stranger, Petruchio, comes to town, he hatches a plan to win Kate, but it’s not easy romancing an unbothered single woman who dishes out insults at lightning speed. Wordplay crackles and passions run high as this iconoclastic couple forges an unconventional path to love in this uproarious Shakespeare comedy. Directed by Shana Cooper (The Unfortunates, Indecent), this bold production turns the tables on tradition, inviting us to question everything we think we know about courtship, gender, and power.

Our 2022 season will run from April through December, and we have three theatres: our two indoor stages—the Angus Bowmer Theatre and the Thomas Theatre—and our flagship outdoor Allen Elizabethan Theatre, which opens in early June and runs through mid-October. We offer up to 8 different plays that include works by Shakespeare as well as a mix of classics, musicals, and world-premiere plays. And our O! digital stage features groundbreaking online productions, films, immersive experiences, and art. As of January 2022, OSF is in the process of finalizing our new organizational strategic plan, which will outline and clarify our mission and values. Also, our website is undergoing an accessibility scan to ensure that all of our patrons can find tickets and learn more about the changes we're making to our programming, community engagement, and IDEA work.
