From the Stratford Shakespeare Festival, this production of Shakespeare’s rollicking classic battle of the sexes stars Len Cariou as Petruchio, the strutting male chauvinist suitor who sets out to undermine the spirit of young Katharina. Taped before a live audience, this production is treated in a solidly traditional fashion by British stage director Peter Dews, retaining the integrity of Shakespeare’s original text. (2 hours 33 minutes)
