ShakespeaRe-Told. The Taming of the Shrew

Description

Meet Katherine Minola, Member of Parliament and aspiring Prime Minister. When her advisers suggest that she marry, she reacts with the same fury she brings to everything-and everyone. But one man is going to change her outlook: enter Petruchio. Screenwriter Sally Wainwright updates Shakespeare's romantic farce, with Shirley Henderson as the irascible Katherine; Jaime Murray as her supermodel sister, Bianca; and Rufus Sewell as Petruchio, the spendthrift with a heart of gold. Produced by BBC Northern Ireland and Horsebridge Productions.
