EVENT The Taming of the Shrew
DATE Friday 12 & Saturday 13 March 2010, 8pm (also 2pm - Sat)
Presented by The University of Warwick Shakespeare Society.
Kate, a feisty, outspoken, impatient 'shrew' is to be tamed by lion-tamer Petruchio in order for her younger sister, the virtuous and beautiful Bianca, to marry one of her many suitors. In this adventurous and creative version of The Taming of the Shrew, be prepared to watch the world of the Shrew be transformed as she enters a realm of circus trickery, carnival darkness, and a marriage marked by the cage she is placed in by her husband. This is Shakespeare like you have NEVER seen it before... Expect the unexpected. Expect power. Expect the dark and delicious maliciousness of gender subversion and animalistic unpredictability to take control of you, as we turn the studio into an alternative world that we never knew existed.
VENUE CAPITAL Centre Studio, University of Warwick, Coventry
TICKETS Free - tickets bookable via www.warwicksu.com/events/13144/6179/
