About this event
Over three afternoons on August Bank Holiday weekend Petruchio will be attempting to tame the shrewish Katherine whilst falling in love with her. Baptista has decreed that his younger daughter Bianca cannot marry until the older, Kate, has been taken off his hands so the bold Petruchio with an eye for a generous dowry, and the confidence that he can tame any shrew, offers marriage. But will the tempestuous Kate really be tamed? And which of her three suitors will demure sister Bianca choose? The elderly Gremio, the flamboyant Hortensio or the strangely disguised Lucentio?
The production will be open-air and will comply with Covid restrictions that are current at the time. The audience will be seated throughout and sheltered from rain or shine by a marquee. There will be an interval and refreshments available.
