Lazarus Theatre presents
The Taming of the Shrew by William Shakespeare
Tuesday 18 July to Saturday 5 August 2017
I see a woman may be made a fool If she had not a spirit to resist.
Lazarus Theatre’s Season of Legacy continues with Shakespeare’s feisty The Taming of the Shrew. Kate talks too much; at least, that’s what the men of Padua think. So they persuade Petruchio to marry her and bring his wilful wife to heel. Part farce, and part tragedy, The Taming of the Shrew dramatises society’s attempt to control and one woman’s bid to resist. Shakespeare’s witty play hits the stage in an all-new gusty and energetic ensemble production. Using text, movement and a contemporary score, this is a Shrew not to be missed.
