The Taming of the Shrew, is one of Shakespeare’s earliest comedies, perhaps the most convoluted and twisted and certainly the most controversial. A comedy that despite itself makes us laugh, filled with atrocities and bizarre relationships, where love is not love but veiled gain and fiction is one of the most important ingredients; in short, a complex challenge that led us to choose the Elizabethan game of disguise, as it provides a good idea of ​​ distorted relationships and “wild” hearts needing to be tamed. Yet are we so sure that it is only the heart of Caterina, the shrew, which needs to be tamed?
