In this lively audio adaptation of Shakespeare’s comedy, The Taming of the Shrew, love and wit triumph amid the antics of self-delusion and disguise.

Will anyone dare to take on the challenge of taming Kate?

Enter the clever Petruchio, who boldly takes on the task of transforming Kate from a fierce termagant into a devoted wife. Meanwhile, young Lucentio and his astute servant, Tranio, devise their own scheme to court Bianca. This audiobook features powerful performances by Frances Barber as Kate, Roger Allam as Petruchio, and Alan Cox as Lucentio, delivering a delightful experience for listeners.
