The Taming of the Shrew is a comedic play.
The Taming of the Shrew was written in English by William Shakespeare.
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.

Baptista Minola.

Hortensio and Gremio are rivals for the love of Bianca Minola in The Taming of the Shrew.

Where was the play "The Taming of the Shrew" preformed
The Taming of the Shrew is a comedic play.
In "The Taming of the Shrew," Lucentio and Bianca return from church to find that Petruchio has successfully "tamed" Katharina. This resolution occurs through Petruchio's use of unconventional means to "train" Katharina to be obedient and subservient to him. The other characters, including Lucentio and Bianca, are surprised by this transformation and the play concludes with a speech by Katharina about the duties of a wife to her husband.
The Taming of the Shrew was written in English by William Shakespeare.
