- **Event Description**: Welcome to FREE Shakespeare By the Lakes: The Taming of the Shrew! 

Join us for opening night at Tuggeranong Town Park for an evening of classic Shakespeare under the stars. Get ready for a hilarious and thought-provoking performance of The Taming of the Shrew in a beautiful outdoor setting. 

Pack your picnic, grab your family and friends, and let Lakespeare’s very fine ‘Shrew crew’ entertain you (and maybe steal a few of your olives) as Canberra comes together for a battle of wits and biting satire with another summer season of open-air Shakespeare.

Shakespeare’s infamous battle of the sexes gets turned on its head in this bold and energetic version of The Taming of the Shrew, directed by Karen Vickery.

Inspired by a concept by The Playwrought Project (recently performed at Sydney’s Wharf Theatre), this is a world where women do the taming. With suitors lining up for a chance to woo the agreeable Bianco, their mother declares there will be no marriage until the older hot-headed Christopher (Kit) is wed first. The limits of love are tested, and satire and mischief abound, as the cunning Petruchia takes on the daunting task of courting this sharp-tongued ‘shrew’.
