What it's about
A drunken tinker is tricked into believing he is a lord and watches a play: in Padua, Petruchio marries the sharp-tongued Katherina for her dowry and sets out to break her will, while suitors in disguise compete for her sister Bianca. A comedy that audiences have argued over for four hundred years.
