The Queen's Company, New York City's acclaimed (and first) all-female classical theater company, now in its 15th season, presents William Shakespeare's TAMING OF THE SHREW, directed by The Queen's Company Artistic Director Rebecca Patterson. TAMING OF THE SHREW runs now through May 1, 2016 in a limited engagement at the Wild Project, and BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
TAMING OF THE SHREW is one of Shakespeare's funniest, sexiest and most controversial comedies. A fiery ferocious female meets her match in a charming tempestuous man while her blow-up doll sister's pack of suitors vie for her vinyl hand. How will their marriages survive when obedience is the price demanded for love? The Queen's Company's provocative production of Shakespeare's TAMING OF THE SHREW, featuring an all-female cast, will delight and surprise with its unexpected redemptive ending. The cast includes Tiffany Abercrombie, Kelsey Arendt, Ashley Samona Baker, Amy Driesler, Laura E. Johnston, Nylda Mark, Elisabeth Preston and Catherine Talton. The production team includes Angelica Borrero (Set Design), Alberto Ruiz (Lighting Design), Elizabeth Flores (Costume Design), Beth Lake (Sound Design), Judi Lewis Ockler (Fight Choreography) and Veronica Gheller (Production Stage Manager).Performances are Tuesdays - Saturdays at 8pm and Sundays at 3pm. Tickets are $18 and can be purchased online at QueensCompany.org or by calling 1-866-811-4111.
