Spring 2004 - The Taming of the Shrew

"I will not shy away from it" Says Director David Toltek Set in Italy of today, specifically in the power-house outward looking atmosphere of the north. An invigorating society of contrasts - football/opera, machismo/feminism, old/ new, catholicism/secularism - and where anything 'new' is rapaciously absorbed and re-invented in a way that only Italians can do with such style. You can be sure that this will be a production that will have you rivited to your seat.
