A spirited, comedic adaptation of Shakespeare's battle-of-wills romance, built on witty banter, physical comedy, and the eventual softening of two headstrong characters.

Italy, 16th century. Petruchio, a choleric, lying and poor rural landowner from Verona, arrives in Padua in search of fortune and a wife, while Baptista, a wealthy merchant, announces that he will not allow Bianca, his youngest daughter, to marry until the temperamental and unruly Katherina, his eldest daughter, does.
