Expired
Get ready to witness Shakespeare's infamous battle of the sexes in a bold 70-minute production packed with grand Elizabethan costumes, devilish jokes and fresh twists. In this reimagined 1594, it is a matriarchal world where the women do the taming. This is Shrew like you've never seen it before.
In the plush and pompous town of Padua, suitors are lining up for a chance to woo the charming Bianca. But there's a catch: Bianca can't marry until Katherina is wed first. Unfortunately, Katherina isn't exactly marriage material. Hot-headed and anti-social, no one will go near them. But when the cunning Petruchio takes on the shrew, their unconventional courtship reveals shocking revelations about the limits of love and power.
The Taming of the Shrew is Shakespeare's most provocative comedy that sings with contemporary relevance, biting satire and profound insights into love, consent and everyone's need to be accepted. Don't miss your chance to be a part of the splendour, where historical elegance and contemporary mischief crash together for an astonishing night of theatre.
