Plot Synopsis
This great comedy starts begins when a trick is played by a nobleman on the drunkard Christopher Sly who arranges for an acting troupe to perform a play called The Taming of the Shrew. The beautiful and gentle Bianca has no shortage of admirers, but her father insists that she will not marry until her shrewish sister, Katharina, is betrothed. Bianca's suitors persuade fortune-seeker Petruchio to court her.
Petruchio marries Katharina and carries her off to his country house. Petruchio intends to browbeat Katharina into submission in which he “tames” her through various forms of deprivation. They return to Padua where Lucentio has won Bianca. At a banquet they wager on who has the most obedient wife. Each wife is issued with commands, but only Katharina obeys and promptly lectures everyone on the importance of wifely submission.
