Based on Shakespeare's Taming of The Shrew
A hilarious musical comedy about the ins and outs of a traveling company performing Shakespeare's Taming of The Shrew. The actors and actresses have much in common with the stereotypical characters they portray onstage. This show is generally considered to be Cole Porter's masterpiece.
There is a good deal of dancing in the show, but the actual level of difficulty will depend on the choreographer.
