Set against the playful backdrop of a 1950s sitcom, this lively take on Shakespeare’s classic comedy brings a fresh twist to a timeless tale. The Taming of the Shrew is a fast-paced “battle of the sexes” packed with wit, mistaken identities, and larger-than-life characters.
Can Petruchio win the heart of the fiercely independent Kate? Will Lucentio’s schemes to woo the lovely Bianca succeed—or backfire spectacularly? Join us for a fun-filled evening of laughter, love, and live theatre under the stars!
This open-air production is a collaboration between The Newtowne Players and Historic St. Mary’s City.
