Premiere – The Taming of the Shrew or Felicità
“Tsiskvili Theatre” presents its new premiere — the musical comedy The Taming of the Shrew or Felicità.
Inspired by William Shakespeare’s famous comedy and infused with the spirit of beloved classic Italian cinema, this brand-new production is filled with timeless Italian hits, humor, love, and unexpected adventures.
It is the story of a stubborn Italian farmer and a wealthy, self-assured woman unaccustomed to hearing the word “no.” After a fateful encounter, sparks begin to fly, making us wonder: who is truly the shrew here - the woman or the man? Who will tame whom? And above all… what role does William Shakespeare himself play in all of this?
You can only discover the answers by coming to the theater. Don’t miss this spectacular celebration - the shrews are already waiting for you…

About the Production:
William Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew has inspired thousands of adaptations worldwide. Yet only one world-famous musical based on the comedy exists - the legendary 1948 Broadway production Kiss Me, Kate. The play has been staged in nearly 100 languages across the globe and remains just as relevant today as it was 400 years ago, exploring timeless questions of love, sacrifice, pride, and human relationships.
This bold new interpretation by “Theatre”, titled The Taming of the Shrew or Felicità, is a musical filled with pure emotion. Here, everyone is searching for love - from the 16th century to the modern day. Time periods blur, and every character reveals their own inner shrew, from the leading protagonists to the local villagers. Yet in the end, love triumphs, bringing Felicità - pure, overwhelming happiness.
