The Taming of the Shrew

ALL TALKING, ALL LAUGHING COMEDY SENSATION!

Set in 16th-century Italy, the story follows Petruchio, a choleric, lying, and impoverished rural landowner from Verona who comes to Padua in search of fortune and a wife. At the same time, wealthy merchant Baptista declares that he will not permit his youngest daughter, Bianca, to marry until her temperamental and unruly older sister, Katherina, has wed.
