Event Info
From 7:30pm
Rain or Shine Theatre Company invite you to an evening of rip roaring entertainment with William Shakespeare's hilarious comedy classic. Petruchio, a poverty stricken gentleman from Verona, journeys to Padua in search of a wealthy wife. Where he encounters the fiery Katharina, a self willed shrew who leads Petruchio on a merry chase before he successfully circumvents her attempts to avoid marriage. Their honeymoon becomes a humorous battle of wit and insult with Kate as determined to maintain her independence as Petruchio is to 'tame' her. This romantic farce, full of disguises, deals with themes such as marriage and duty, reality and illusion and compromise. Perhaps Shakespeare's most clever and sophisticated comedy guaranteed to be a hilarious summer evening. Bring your chairs, picnics, wine and friends and enjoy an enchanting evening of outdoor theatre at its best.
