About the event
Brampton’s Own Shakespeare Show returns for its third season touring TAMING OF THE SHREW DUDE to three outdoor stages around Brampton this summer! Grab a chair, a blanket, pack a picnic, and pick the park nearest you to settle in and enjoy this comedic battle of the sexes.
Louie the Goat Productions and a cast of homegrown actors brings you a gender bending spin on William Shakespeare’s Taming of the Shrew. In this version, Noblewoman Bethany has 2 sons, Nathaniel and Benjamin; 1 nasty and 1 sweet. The nasty Nathaniel is married off to Penelope, a clever woman who uses some questionable tactics to tame this feisty man into becoming the “perfect husband”. With lots of laughs and a tongue-in-cheek commentary on gender-norms, this is a PAY-WHAT-YOU-CAN summer theatre experience for the whole family!
