SUMMARY:Taming of the Shrew
UID:643467@northwestern.edu
TZID:America/Chicago
DESCRIPTION:April 23 – May 2\, 2027 A bold reinterpretation that questions power\, identity\, and performance\, reflecting the Wirtz Center’s commitment to reexamining inherited stories through fearless creative lenses.   By William Shakespeare  Directed by Rosalind Faires  In an attempt to rid themselves of a belligerent customer\, the staff and patrons of a Texas drag bar are banding together to put on a play. The story they’re telling centers on a family in uproar. Patriarch Baptista won’t let his youngest daughter\, Bianca\, wed until her elder sister\, Katherina\, ties the knot—and Katherina’s not having any of it. Enter the peculiar Petruchio\, who claims he can make a proper wife out of Katherina and solve everybody’s problems. But what will this unruly couple discover about each other on the rough-and-tumble road to love? This reimagining of Shakespeare’s divisive romantic comedy\, set in a queer honky tonk\, puts the play’s knotty relationship to gender center stage and asks what it means to be truly seen in a society that denies your very existence.  Approximate run time: 2 hours and 30 minutes with one intermission Suggested ages: 14+\n\nMore Info: https://wirtz.northwestern.edu/2026-2027-season/?e-filter-deec0d5-city=evanston\n\nBuy Tickets: https://ci.ovationtix.com/1771/production/1279576
