Desc: RSC: The Taming of the Shrew: Directed by Justin Audibert. With Claire Price, Sophie Stanton, Amy Trigg, Michael Patrick. In a reimagined 1590, society is a matriarchy. Baptista Minola is seeking to sell off her son Katherine to the highest bidder. Cue an explosive battle of the sexes in this electrically charged love story. Justin Audibert turns Shakespeare's fierce, energetic comedy of gender and materialism on its head to offer a fresh perspective on its portrayal of hierarchy and power.
