Center for Communications and Creative Media, 3rd Floor, 375 Maple Street
When the clever and fiery Kate meets the clamorous and entrepreneurial Petruchio, sparks fly! Shakespeare's delirious take on gender roles explores marriage as a commodity and love itself as theatre. One of Shakespeare's most talked about comedies, The Taming of the Shrew is sure to entertain, disrupt, and leave us thinking.
The Vermont Shakespeare Festival's production of The Taming of the Shrew, a modern take on the 400 year-old comic battle of the sexes, opens in two weeks at Champlain College, which is sponsoring the production. Additional performances are at the new Globe Theatre replica at Highland Center for the Arts July 27-29, and outdoors on the Circus Lawn at the Shelburne Museum August 9-11. Tickets for the Highland Center for the Arts are available at http://highlandartsvt.org. Tickets for Champlain College and Shelburne Museum performances are on sale at FlynnTix at https://flynntix.org and sold at the door as available. All venues are handicapped accessible.
Now in its 14th season of producing professional theatre, Vermont Shakespeare Festival brings wit, intelligence, and power-packed action to the stage with an extraordinary company of actors from the region. VSF Co-Artistic Directors Jena Necrason and John Nagle direct the production. For more information, go to www.vermontshakespeare.org or call the updated show info hotline at 877-874-1911.
