After receiving 15 Helen Hayes Award nominations in 2012, Synetic returns to comedy and presents the eighth installment in the Silent Shakespeare series. The Taming of the Shrew will be performed at the Lansburgh Theatre in downtown Washington, DC, in a continuing special alliance with the Shakespeare Theatre Company. Irina Tsikurishvili will play the title character in one of the Bard’s best-known romantic comedies, while the Helen Hayes Award-winning ensemble brings its signature physicality and aesthetic to reinvent this remarkable, fiery war of the sexes.
