ABOUT THE SHOW

The Taming of the Shrew is a comedy about an unstoppable force meeting an immovable object: when the eager-to-wed Petruchio meets the stubborn Katerina, he domesticates his wild wife, and they learn to live in harmony.


That is not the story we'll will be telling.


Shrew is a tragedy about the death of women’s autonomy within an oppressive patriarchal system, about the cold and capitalist purchasing of wives, and about the establishment of Petruchio’s “taming school.” This production will examine the disastrous effects of inter-partner violence and its overwhelming presence in Western literary canon, which has been tolerated for too long.
