Shakespeare by the Sea presents: The Taming of the Shrew
When rebellious Katherina stands in the way of her younger sister Bianca's marriage, fortune hunter Petruchio is enlisted to "tame" the elder daughter, freeing a path for Bianca's motley suiters. From their first meeting, sparks fly and the ultimate battle of the sexes ensues - leaving us to wonder, who is taming who?

Pack a picnic, a blanket and a low back beach chair; gather loved ones and settle in under the stars for a night of classic entertainment.
