Taming of the Shrew (version 2)
The Taming of the Shrew is a comedy by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in the late 16th century. The play opens with Christopher Sly, a drunkard who is tricked into believing he is a nobleman, setting the stage for a performance about the courtship of Bianca and her fiery sister, Katherina. The plot centers on Petruchio's attempts to 'tame' Katherina, making it notable for its exploration of gender roles and marriage dynamics. This version was recorded as part of LibriVox's celebration of Shakespeare's 400th anniversary.
