In The Taming of the Shrew, the fiery and clever Katherina, played by Jumbo, is to be married off. McTeer stars as Petruchio, the wild outsider she must outwit. Performances set to continue through June 26 in the Shakespeare classic billed by The Public as an “original screwball comedy showing the lengths men will go to for their legacy, what women will do to break free and the outrageous things we all do for the human heart.”
