Take a light-hearted, comedic romp through the ups and downs of love, class, money and wooing in 16th century Italy as the morés of society meet the affairs of the heart.  Multiple characters disguised as other people try to win the heart of fair Bianca.  Only she can't get married until her older sister, Kate the "Shrew," does.

We provide the only in-show Kids Area for children 10 & under during the show, pre-show/intermission live local music from Kofi or John Bromka, spaces and places to spread out your family's picnic fixings, a concession stand to grab some treats and, of course, great FREE Shakespeare-In-The-Park.  Special appearances by the Syracuse City Ballet and Open Hand Theater puppets.
