Have a rip-roaring good time with this hysterical take-off of The Taming of the Shrew! Set in the old American West, the stubborn and bossy Kate LaRue is driving everyone in town as crazy as a coyote with laryngitis. Her sister, sweet Miss Bianca, is wondering if she will ever be free to marry her handsome suitor, Larry... especially since she has to wait until her bad-tempered sister is tamed with love. Things become even more difficult when outlaws show up! There are many lively characters in this play, that include cantankerous cowboys, romantic heroes, outrageous outlaws and lovely town ladies! SLHS Theatre hopes to see you at the play performance on Sunday, March 7th at 2:00p.m. (Play summary by Pioneer Drama Service)
