Taming of the Shrew

Taming of the Shrew

Solely spurred by an ongoing series from a real Shakespeare Person, I had a quick thought and commentary about Shrew. Possibly misogynistic, fearful, and narrow-minded as a play, I’ve seen it several ways. Straight, over-the-top, and the best was an all female cast in traditional period costumes.

That’s all-female cast on a London stage, I can’t tell if there was tongue in cheek, cheek-by-jowl, or just plain satire.

Best version I’ve seen, and learned from watching it.

Taming of the Shrew

Another take? Vinegar Girl.
