The Tming of the Shrew

Past event
Jul 27, 2018, 7:30 to 8:30 PM

July 27 - August 11

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 next weekend for a three week run, in three venues! See the show at the new Globe Theatre replica at the Highland Center for the Arts July 27 to 29. August 3-5 performances are at Champlain College's Alumni Auditorium, and August 9-11 outdoors on the Circus Lawn at the Shelburne Museum. 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 https://www.flynntix.org/. Tickets will be sold at the door as available.

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.

Shakespeare is in Vermont, and he wants you!
