By: Michael Martinez Shakespeare's immortal comedy pits the plucky but honorable Petruchio against the wild and merciless Kate, and, as Petruchio predicts, "where two raging fires meet together, they do consume the thing that feeds their fury". Kate's younger sister Bianca is forbidden by their father to marry any of her many suitors until her shrewish older sister Katherine is married. And only Petruchio is willing to take on that challenge. With the aid of his occasionally trusty servant Grumio, Petruchio guides "Kate the Cursed" into a true loving partnership of trust and passion. The production will be performed in Central Park at majestic Belvedere Castle (near the Delacorte Theatre and Shakespeare Garden, entrance at West 79th Street.). Admission: Jeremy X.
