More Information about The Taming Of The Shrew

The ultimate battle of the sexes is turned on its head in Justin Audibert's The Taming of the Shrew as the 1590s are reimagined - with women in charge. In this radical take on Shakespeare's fierce and energetic comedy of gender, Baptista Minola is seeking to marry off her two sons, the sweet-tempered Bianco and the rebellious Katherine. Cue an explosive courtship and a keenly witty portrayal of hierarchy and power.
