The 1600's fanfiction sequel to
Taming of the Shrew continues the story with Petruchio's
second marriage, exploring gender relations and ways for women to reclaim their agency in a vastly unequal society.
The Rude Mechanicals are dedicated to fostering an inclusive environment, and
welcome actors of all races, genders, ethnicities, ages and abilities.
Actors of all genders are encouraged to audition for all roles; the character genders and pronouns will be
retained as per original text.
All rehearsals and performances will be conducted via Zoom. Our production will focus on collaboration to
find new ways to explore this emerging medium.
