Taal & Kunst Kortrijk plays "The Taming of the Shrew
Modern gender comedy by William Shakespeare in an adaptation by Dirk Tanghe
Katharina is sharp-tongued, strong-willed and above all: determined to remain her own boss. Getting married? Out of the question. Men? As far as she is concerned, they are welcome to keep a safe distance.
Tot Petruchio appears. He is charming, idiosyncratic and at least as stubborn as she is. What follows is not classic courtship, but a ruthless duel of words, willpower and temptation. Who will let themselves be tamed by whom? And can love blossom when two people first practically go for each other's throats?
