Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew is a device, a diversion, a trick, and mischievous entertainment. The plot revolves around Katherine and Petruchio. Katherine is a woman who is not afraid to speak her mind, and Petruchio is a man who believes he can "tame" her. Everything's a gamble, love most of all! The African-American Shakespeare Company sets this classic play in 1970's San Francisco - the Summer of Love.
Famine threatens Rome, and hunger fuels the tensions between the country’s elite and the deprived masses.
