GableStage (a professional theatre located at The Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables) brings a high energy and tightly edited version of William Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew to The Seminole Theatre!  The production, in collaboration with the What if Works Inc, is under the direction of FIU Associate Professor, Phillip M Church. It features 7 dynamic performers—all FIU graduates—in a one-hour adaptation of the classic work.

The Taming of the Shrew is a comedy believed to have been written between 1590 and 1592. The main plot depicts the courtship of Petruchio and Katherina—the headstrong, stubborn “shrew”. Through various psychological torments, Petruchio is able to “tame” Katherina into becoming his bride. The subplot involves a competition between suitors for, Bianca—Katherina’s more desirable sister. The tale itself has been adapted numerous times for stage, screen, opera, ballet, and musical theatre with the most famous being Cole Porter’s Kiss Me Kate and the high school comedy film 10 Things I Hate About You.

The adaptation features aspects of Commedia dell Arte, “slapstick” and “physical” theatre. It is a great introduction to Shakespeare and theatre!
