The Taming of the Shrew presented by the Baltimore Shakespeare Factory
A rough-and-tumble farce centered around a lively battle of the sexes, The Taming of the Shrew brims with action and bawdy humor. The unconventional romance between a lusty fortune-hunter and a feisty sharp tongued daughter of privilege unfolds to the accompaniment of witty, fast-paced dialogue and physical humor in this excellent introduction to Shakespearean comedy.
Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00pm
Sundays at 4:00pm
Pre-show entertainment begins 30 minutes before showtime
One of the Shakespeare's earliest and most popular plays, The Taming of the Shrew is rife with subplots involving his customary devices of disguise and mistaken identity. The vivid language, studded with elaborate puns, is an engaging complement to the play's slapstick humor.
As with all Shakespeare Factory productions, The Taming of the Shrew is presented using the staging conditions of Shakespeare's day. Our productions bring Shakespeare's works to life in a way that is fresh and accessible to modern audiences without compromising the original language. The result is a fun, engaging, and fast-paced show that celebrates the artistry of Shakespeare's language.
