THE CT POST …
“This "Taming of the Shrew" offers a jolt, a fresh way of viewing the familiar, a daring version of a classic tale.… the production is dynamite.
Highly entertaining…cleverly interpreted.… think the Three Stooges, the Age of Aquarius, punk rock, street theater,
TV sit-com.” - Irene Backalenick
CT Critics Circle…
“In my long years as a theatre critic I have seen many versions of “The Taming of the Shrew,” but never have I witnessed such an entertaining and imaginative production…“ - Marlene S. Gaylinn
“An evening of high-power entertainment... It's the bard, injected with "Saturday Night Fever"…and just plain fun to watch…traditional Shakespeare this is not, but it is well conceived and well performed.” - June S. April |
Shakespeare For Kids

Taming of The Shrew - the perfect introduction to the
