“Lucentio loves Bianca, but so does Gremio and Hortensio. That’s the least of his problems since nobody is marrying Bianca until somebody marries her sister Katharina. Enter Petruchio, a man on the hunt for a wealthy wife. Fun and fireworks erupt as the couples square off in our innovative reimagining of Shakespeare’s challenging comedy."
"The Queen’s Company is a NYC-based nonprofit organization dedicated to the creation of innovative productions of classical plays featuring all-female casts. Our critically acclaimed productions are directed by founding Artistic Director Rebecca Patterson.
The Queen’s Company weds a love of language to a love of life, weaving inspiration from history and world cultures into the fabric of our classical productions, celebrating the intercultural American voice.
