“The Taming of the Shrew”: Brevity Shakespeare
May 30–June 1 & June 6–8. Veronica Long directs this local acting company in a 90-minute gender-reversed production of Shakespeare's earthy comedy about the battle of the sexes. The action centers on a pair of brothers courted by a dozen women whose gallivanting is funded by their rich mothers. With one of Shakespeare’s most absorbingly suspenseful plots, The Taming of the Shrew also features amazing exploits, lots of high-spirited impersonations, sharp wits, and even sharper tongues. 7:30 p.m. (Fri. & Sat.) & 2 p.m. (Sun.), Ypsilanti Performance Space, 218 N. Adams, Ypsilanti. Tickets $15 (students & seniors, $10). Limited capacity; reservations recommended at brevityshakespeare.com.
