Lucentio loves Bianca, but society’s rules (and her father’s bad temper) prevent her marrying until her older sister Katherina weds. But Katherina is strong-willed, outspoken, and not interested in marriage – three strikes against any woman in an era where females were considered property and required to be submissive.

Beatrice loves Benedick. Benedick loves Beatrice. So what’s the problem? Feel the joy of love won and the ache of love lost as this story makes you laugh, breaks your heart, and then somehow puts it back together again.

“Way, way back, many centuries ago – not long after the Bible began…” a band of brothers were so jealous of their father’s favorite son (and his dazzling coat of many colors) that a plan for sabotage was born. This modern reimagining of the classic Biblical story is full of humor, heart, and some seriously catchy songs!
