[fobitobi]

[inuyashafollower]

I saw this is acting class in 1983. This is THE BEST production of this play EVER!!!

[JUStxSMiilEx]

That was not a cod piece it was natural and besides this was PBS not one of the networks. By the time this was shown, and I saw it twice, nudity in brief forms had already been presented on PBS.

[jimsher9880]

How he ever got away with wearing that codpiece on TV in the early '70's I'll never know.

I am currently Grumio at the Rylander. It is fun and amazing. I love it. This inspires my characteristics of Grumio. I wear a Commedia mask. This makes the role even funner. I love the style and period of this production, especially the speed.

[Stinger198]

I also play Grumio in a Childrens theater production of the show.

Do you know if there would be any way to buy, rent, or download the whole of this play? Was it made for TV, or could it be found on recording in a library?

[wadedrodrigue]

@BetaLynn3093 Bought on Amazon to use in class!

[theCommenteer]

His best role.

[NathanIles]

I am currently portraying Petruchio for ym school play

This performance probably innfluences me the most.

[elleoneiram]

I relaly like this style for this play, particularly considering it is a play within a play.

[unafaery]

[25Maz25]

This is brilliant!!

[harbor521]

This is STUNNING!

[tall32guy]

This is the only version I've yet seen of Taming, in a a drama class in 1999. I enjoyed it a lot and found it funny. :-)

[LalaBriana]

i love this version.

especially the part where Petruchio woos Katherine.

[theatresinger]

I was in this play... I played Katherine! I loved the play so mcuh! We also watched this film, along with a few other ones to help understand the play more, and our charaters!

[awannabewriter]

Are you going to post all of it? I love this. Marc Singer is brilliant, so is the lady who played Katherine :)
