Taming of the Shrew by William Shakespeare
Bowler Crab return on tour in 2024 for The Taming Of The Shrew, one of few comedies new to the company after producing 32 Shakespeare tours in the last eleven years.
The Taming Of The Shrew is full of mirth, disguise, laughter, slapstick comedy, dance and song - all the while making us question the relationship between men and women and the performances society expects from stereotypes. Bowler Crab, ever eager to look at Shakespeare from new perspectives, have taken plot points, characters and scenes from the ever elusive “The Taming of A Shrew” published by Anonymous and believed to be the predecessor of Shakespeare’s play.
Being performed in the Tudor Rooms at the The Mermaid Inn
