Shakespeare's comedy “The Taming of the Shrew,” presented by the Laredo Theater Guild International (LTGI) opens March 25-28 at Texas A&M International University’s recently completed 500-seat Center for the Fine and Performing Arts Theatre.

Directed by John Maxstadt and produced by Joe Arciniega, it will be performed Thursday, March 25 through Saturday, March 27 at 7:30 p.m. and on Sunday, March 28, at 3 p.m.

Tickets for “The Taming of the Shrew” will be $15 general admission and $10 discounted admission for seniors and students with valid I.D., and are available for advance purchase at Foster's, 1605 E. Del Mar Boulevard, and at the TAMIU Bookstore. Tickets will be available on site at the box office before show times. For more information, call 956.319.8610 or visit laredotheaterguild.com

A limited number of complimentary student tickets are available on a first-come, first-served basis at TAMIU's College of Arts and Sciences, department of fine and performing arts, located in the Center for the Fine and Performing Arts, room 217C.  Additionally, 15 minutes prior to every performance, all remaining tickets are offered to TAMIU students with valid student ID at no charge.

“The Taming of the Shrew” is a merry knockabout farce about love and marriage. It’s the story of wealthy merchant Baptista Minola’s two daughters, Katherine and Bianca, and how they were wooed, won and wed.
