10 Things I Hate About Taming of the Shrew on Sunday 28th - Tuesday 30th July 2019

International Award Winner and Bobby Award Nominee; Gillian English is back in the UK.

‘When men insist on telling women’s stories for them, not only do they miss the point of telling a story, but they tell it wrong too’.

'10 things I Hate About Taming of the Shrew’ will take you back to the good old days, when we worried about Y2K, wore butterfly clips in our hair, and became total babes the minute we took off our glasses. Then the even older days where we worried about the plague, wore massive wigs, and women weren't allowed to be on stage anyway.

A theatrical, comedic, listicle romp through the world of teenage Shakespeare film adaptations, and their lasting impact on a generation. Examining the continuous re-telling of the same stories from the original content aggregator himself, delving into our problematic, cinematic, very recent past.

Expect an electrifyingly clever list that comprises of reasons why Shakespeare was a bit of a douche, see how old prejudices have new tricks, as well as the obligatory totally bopping soundtracks!
