"Wonderfully informative and fun. You can't do better."—Charles P. Lord, headmaster, St. Timothy's School, Baltimore, Maryland

"A truly fun, emotional, and sometimes magical first experience . . . guided by a sagacious, knowledgeable, and intuitive educator."—Library Journal

The Taming of the Shrew: The 30-Minute Shakespeare offers eight scenes from this broad comedy. Opening with Petruchio and Kate''s bawdy war of words, the drama continues with Bianca''s courtship by Lucentio and Hortensio, disguised as pedants. The adaptation climaxes with the outlandish marriage scene, and Petruchio''s relentless "taming" of Kate. The play ends with Kate''s famous speech in praise of women''s submission to their husbands, at once hilarious and provocative.

The edition includes a preface by Nick Newlin, containing helpful advice on presenting Shakespeare in a high school setting with novice actors, as well as an appendix with play-specific suggestions and recommendations for further resources.
