The Taming of the Shrew

Adaptation of the Shakespeare play. Baptista is enthusiastic about Petruchio's suit because the feisty Katherina is a burden to him and is continually quarrelling with her sister and with him. Petruchio will not be put off as he woos Kate and he fixes their wedding day. At the church, where Kate unwillingly awaits him, Petruchio arrives in an absurd outfit and after the ceremony he leaves for Verona immediately, with his new wife. Stars Maurice Evans.
