What is the external conflict in Taming of the Shrew?

Hortensio wants to marry Bianca. Gremio wants to marry Bianca. Lucentio wants to marry Bianca. There's a conflict. Baptista refuses to allow Bianca to marry, despite her desires and those of her suitors. There's another. Petruchio wants Kate to behave herself, but she doesn't. Another conflict.


Does anyone have any costume ideas for Bianca in Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew?

I saw a film version of The Taming of the Shrew where all the costumes were a mix of red-orange, white, and khaki. Bianca wore a white dress with a pale sash. Katherine wore a white dress with a red satin corset. (This would be the American Conservatory Theatre's production in 1976) I saw a stage version set in the 1970s where Kate was a punk rocker and Bianca was the girl next door. Basically, you want Bianca to be dressed conventionally, in contrast to Kate's more idiosyncratic look. This will underline their characters.


Who is hortensio in the play The Taming of the Shrew?

Hortensio is a gentleman of Padua who is interested in marrying Bianca Minola, sister of the shrew Kate. He disguises himself as a music teacher to get in the house with a view to spending some time with Bianca. Kate, however, "breaks him to the lute" by smashing it over his head, and he doesn't seem to be making any headway with Bianca, who is totally wrapped up in Lucentio. He therefore gives up on Bianca and marries a widow of the town. She is somewhat headstrong, and Hortensio visits Petruchio to get some ideas on how to "tame a wife". Again, he is not particularly successful; his new wife, when entreated to come to Hortensio, says "she will not come" and bids him come to her.


What is act 5 scene 2 about in taming of the shrew?

It's the last scene in the play; Bianca's wedding, at which Petruchio bets that Kate is better behaved than either Bianca or Hortensio's new wife. And so it proves to be; at Petruchio's behest, she comes from other room, then she goes and fetches Bianca and Hortensio's wife and brings them also, and finishes it off with a speech in which she praises the virtue of obedience in wives (a speech which tends to grate on modern ears if delivered straight.)

Who is the shrew in The Taming of the Shrew and why?

The "shrew's" name is Katharina Minola. However, her sister Bianca and Petruchio refer to her as Kate. Hence, the famous line, "Kiss me Kate." Katherine is the oldest daughter of Baptista, Bianca's older sister, and later the wife of Petruchio. She is very ill tempered and very loud (shrew means nagging woman so it really fits Katherine's personality), and as a result nobody wants to court her or ask her hand in marriage until Petruchio comes. In the 1967 movie, Kate was Elizabeth Taylor's character.Another PerspectiveAlthough it seems as if Kate is the shrew, Bianca is the true shrew of the story. Kate is unloved, unwanted, and rejected by those around her which causes her to be bitter towards everyone. Bianca on the other hand is used to getting her way, pretends to be an angel, and is her father's favorite daughter. At the end of the book, both Bianca and Kate are summoned by their husbands - Kate obediently comes while Bianca refuses to answer his summon proving herself the true shrew of this Shakespearian play.
