CREATIVE 360 HOSTS SHAKESPEARE’S TAMING OF THE SHREW

Taming of the Shrew

Taming of the ShrewCreative 360 hosts a staged reading of Shakespeare’s most boisterous comedy, The Taming of the Shrew Friday, April 20 at 7:00 pm. Admission is $10 pre-paid and $12 at the door. Bring your own beverage. Call Creative 360 at 989-837-1885 or on their website at becreative360.org to make your reservations.

One of Shakespeare’s earliest plays, and one of his funniest, The Taming of the Shrew introduces one of theatre’s great screwball couples hell-bent on confusing and outwitting each other – the swaggering Petruchio and Katherina, the headstrong, obdurate shrew. To a modern audience, it’s also one of his most controversial. A strong-willed and outspoken woman is apparently broken and tamed by a man who seems to marry her for money and a macho challenge. But, perhaps it’s not quite as simple as that! This reading will give you a different perspective on a classic tale of the battle of the sexes, which still rages today.

The play is directed by Matt Hutchinson and features an all-star cast: Dexter Brigham, Laura Brigham, Meagan Eager, Shawn Finney, Matt Hutchinson, Paul Lutenske, Grace Lutenske, Ann Russel-Lutenske, Katie Sunderman, Santana Vermeesch, and Isaac Wood.
