Sydney Opera House will stage "The Taming Of The Shrew" presented by Bell Shakespeare - William Shakespeare, directed by Marion Potts, playing on 2009-10-20 and 2009-11-21, at the Playhouse.
Disco balls, karaoke and a daring all-female cast tell the story of a woman no ‘man’ can contain. While Lucentio fixes his gaze on sweet and gentle Bianca, Petruchio sets his sights on Bianca’s wanton sister, Kate, and vows to tame her.
Directed by Marion Potts (Othello, Hamlet, Venus & Adonis), this new production of Shakespeare’s controversial comedy takes the politics of marriage to ludicrous heights. Witty, energetic and packed with female punch, The Taming Of The Shrew is the perfect night out for anyone who has ever fallen in love – and managed to survive it.
