The Taming of the Shrew

Engage with a boisterous and controversial comedy that depicts the courtship of a headstrong woman by a fortune-seeking suitor determined to “tame” her. The play utilizes disguises, slapstick, and psychological games to explore the battle of the sexes and the economic underpinnings of marriage. While often critiqued for its gender politics, it offers a raw and energetic look at the performative nature of social roles. It is a provocative examination of power dynamics within the domestic sphere.
