The Taming of the Shrew

Shakespeare's second play The Taming of the Shrew is fraught with controversy, contention, humor and sexual tension. It remains a popular and relevant play due to its unconventional and often irreverent dueling sweethearts, Kate and Petruchio. Whether it be the relationship between father and daughter, a man and his childhood friend, or husband and wife, The Taming of the Shrew highlights the diverse ways in which we express deep love. Hamlet Isn't Dead's Christmas production is a funny, festive and brassy celebration of love set in the season when we are meant to cherish our loved ones the most.

Hamlet Isn't Dead is dedicated to the proposition that the works of William Shakespeare have stood the test of time not solely for their technical craftsmanship but also for their emotional universality. We believe that Shakespeare can be appreciated, understood, and enjoyed not only by the intellectual elite, but by everyone, regardless of education, class, or background. Therefore we, Hamlet Isn't Dead, will take a fresh look at the growth and development of William Shakespeare as an author in order to present his texts as if we, and the audience, are experiencing his words for the first time.
