A spokesperson describes the event as follows:
“...What would it be like to reimagine The Taming of the Shrew in which every behavior and self expression Kate has been shamed for, is actually her ticket to her own becoming?” asks Procacci. “What is it like to meet someone who can see you, and like it? Desire it? Kate’s world expands when everything she has been hated for becomes a window into her newfound sexual identity.” Through The Olde School Shakespeare’s aesthetic of serious actors and improvisers meeting memorized with only 12 hours of rehearsal, is interwoven with Shakespeare’s words for a night of raucous bar Shakespeare, presenting The Taming of the Shrew...."
