"If I be waspish,

best beware my sting"

​

Everybody loves Bianca.  Nobody loves her shrewish sister, Kate.  So their father has decided that Bianca can't be married until a husband is found for Kate.  The situation seems hopeless for Bianca's many suitors.  But when the boastful Petruchio blows into town to find himself a wealthy wife he is persuaded that Kate fits the bill.  In the scramble to woo the two sisters, sparks will fly and deceit, disguise and mistaken identities abound.

​

But is Bianca really such a catch?  Is Kate really such a shrew?  And can she really be tamed?  Find out in Shakespeare's fast, farcical and provocative comedy.
