By William Shakespeare
​Adapted by Jenny Meisinger

In Shakespeare's vibrant comedy "Taming of the Shrew," audiences are whisked away into a lively game of wit and romance as the fiercely independent Katherina meets her match in the determined Petruchio. Amidst a whirlwind of clever ploys, mistaken identities, and humorous twists, this classic play dives into themes of love and societal norms with both sharpness and charm. Perfect for theatergoers who relish quick-paced humor and dynamic characters, "Taming of the Shrew" promises an entertaining and thought-provoking experience that will leave you both laughing and reflecting long after the curtain falls.

We provide an outlet for people in the community who are interested in theatre in any capacity at all. Whether their interest is performing, directing, writing, make up, costume design or technical support, we provide opportunities for all through education, growth and hands on experience of working as a volunteer in any of these areas of theatre. In the process, we provide quality entertainment to the surrounding communities. Our goal is to foster, promote and increase the public knowledge and appreciation of the arts and cultural activities in St. Mary's County and Southern Maryland, and to make live theatre affordable and available to as many members of the surrounding communities as possible.
