Gentlemen are heads over heels for Bianca, the beautiful and submissive daughter of wealthy
Baptista Minola. No one may marry Bianca until her older sister, Katherine has found a husband.
Katherine is a violent, temperamental shrew that most men fear. Bianca's suitors persuade Petruchio
to court her. Petruchio believes that he can tame any woman. Petruchio successfully tames Katherine
by denying her food, sleep and other necessities. When they return to Padua, they discover that
Lucentio has won Bianca's hand. It is soon discovered that Katherine is now even more submissive
and obedient than her sister.
Recommended for theatergoers age 8 and over.
