The Liberal Arts Division of North Shore Community College presents…

Shakespeare’s
THE TAMING OF THE SHREW

Directed by Matthew Woods

Taming of the Shrew

April 5 at 7 PM     
April 6 at 3 PM and 7 PM     
April 7 at 3 PM

Lynn Museum / Lynn Arts, Inc.
The Neal Rantoul Vault Theater, 25 Exchange Street, Lynn
featuring Pay What You Can ticketing

Controversial, complicated, and highly comical, William Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew serves up a profound (and profoundly funny) love story wrapped in a wry critique of the marriage contract. 

Although the beautiful and mild-mannered Bianca is surrounded by suitors, her father refuses to let her marry until her elder sister, the fiery-tempered Katharina, first lands a husband.  But who would willingly wed himself to a shrew?  Enter the swaggering and fortune-seeking Petruchio, who directly begins an audacious plan to woo, wed, and tame the wild Kate.   Will these two impossible lovers discover they were made for each other? Or will their happy-ever-after turn into an endless battle-of-wills?  

The Taming of the Shrew is a student-driven production presented by North Shore Community College and the Liberal Arts Division. 

TICKETS MAY BE PURCHASED OR RESERVED ONLINE:  https://nsccshrew.eventbrite.com

Our goal is to make tickets affordable for everyone, so all tickets for this event are Pay What You Can ($1-$15)!  

Not sure what you should pay Consider the standard range for our shows and go from there:  Students and seniors $1-$5; general admission $7-$15; or, why not consider Paying It Forward?  Your larger donation of $10-15 will allow students and others who may not be able to afford even a minimal donation a chance to attend for free!  

For more information please contact Matthew Woods at matwoods@northshore.edu or call Academic Affairs at x2160. 

A NOTE TO EDUCATORS:  if you know a student who would like to attend and who would benefit from a free ticket, you may let them know that there are two ways for them to claim a free ticket: 

  • To reserve a seat online, they will need to offer a minimum of $1 to purchase a ticket, but they can select the PAY AT THE DOOR option at check out, which will not charge them for the ticket. This will allow them to reserve a seat, and they will have a choice to either make a small donation at the door (if they are able), or to simply collect their free ticket / seat.
  • They can contact me at matwoods@northshore.edu. I have held a handful of seats for each show to accommodate students who may need free seats.
