Description
Come and join us in Zazzali's reproduction of Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew, which grapples with the issues of power and gender.
Written by: William Shakespeare
Director: Peter Zazzali
Performed by: 2nd Year Acting students
Director Peter Zazzali from the University of Kansas tackles Shakespeare's controversial battle-of-the- sexes comedy about power and gender. Baptista has two daughters: docile, beautiful Bianca who is much sought after by the noblemen of the town, and ill-tempered Katherine, whose acid tongue keeps suitors at bay. In the tradition of the times, Katherine - as the oldest - must marry first. Bianca's many suitors can't afford to wait, so in a wild scheme to find a husband for Katherine, they convince the wily Petruchio to take on the challenge.
