Taming of the Shrew

Casting is gender neutral in Venice Theatre's new Taming of the Shrew, which artistic director Murray Chase directs with Kelly Wynn Woodland in the intimate black-box Pinkerton Theatre. The directors sought ten actors to play Katherina, Petruchio and Padua's scheming suitors in Shakespeare's comedy of deception and physical mayhem. It is the fourth and last title in the theater's Stage 2 series, after Blood Relations, August: Osage County and Blood of the Lamb.
