~~~ Today, I’ll be talking about the story called The Taming of The Shrew.
~~~ This play was written in 1590-1592 and was written by William Shakespeare. The main characters of the play are Katherine, Petruchio, Bianca, Baptista, Lucentio, Traino, Gremio, Hortensio, Grumio, Biondello and Christopher Sly. There are also background characters, but I just mentioned the main characters. A girl named Katherine (Kate) cannot marry until her younger sister, Bianca marries. The book is called The Taming of The Shre because Kate is an ill-tempered woman and Petruchio “tames” her by torments, he kept her from eating and drinking until she becomes a desirable bride.
~~~ Later in the book, the marriage for Kate takes place and after that, they went over to Petruchio’s house for the wedding dinner, and he didn’t accept it because Kate was still an ill-tempered woman. Petruchio is the suitor of Kate. For her younger sister, she has 3 suitors who are: Gremio, Lucentio and Hortensio. For Petrino, he has 6 suitors all named: Curtis, Nathaniel, Joesph, Peter, Nicolas and Philip. The Pendent pretends to be Vicencio who is a smart man and the father of Lucentio. When they were acting, they were matching up making sure the play was right. At the end of the story, Petruchio successfully tamed the shrew which is Kate, and she became a beautiful bride and got married. She has gotten married to Petruchio.
~~~ To summarize, I think that this was an excellent play and I suggest that you and/or your friends read it too. In this essay, I’ve explained it like I was telling a friend that has never read it before or never heard of it.
