Description

Shakespeare Dallas is taking a new direction this year – featuring two of Shakespeare’s most colorful comedies during the company’s 38th summer season. Texas-style adaptations of The Taming of the Shrew and The Merry Wives of Windsor will take center stage at Samuell-Grand Amphitheatre in June and July.

The Taming of the Shrew, by William Shakespeare

Directed by Executive & Artistic Director Raphael Parry

In this hilarious tale of the battle of the sexes, Baptista Minola, a rich gentleman of Padua, has two daughters - Bianca and Katherine. Sharp-tongued and willful, Katherine seems to terrify men and no one wants to marry her, despite her fortune. Enter Petruchio, a headstrong, stubborn man. It's love at first sight -- but can the two reconcile their wild natures and live happily ever after? In an unusual twist, the production will be a spaghetti western - set in Italy, but seen through the lens of the west in 1835.
