TEXAS Outdoor Musical has long been a staple of Panhandle summer nights. With Shakespeare in the Canyon, the organization continues to grow its cultural impact and offer audiences new ways to connect with the performing arts. Shakespeare in the Canyon is supported in part by a grant from the Amarillo Area Foundation, whose commitment to the arts has made this series possible.
THE TAMING OF THE SHREW is a fiery comedy of mistaken identities, spirited courtship, and the battle of the sexes. When the strong-willed Katherine becomes the focus of the brash and clever Petruchio, sparks fly in a game of wit and will. Meanwhile, suitors scramble to win the heart of her younger sister, Bianca—setting off a whirlwind of disguises, deception, and uproarious antics. Bold, fast-paced, and packed with sharp humor, The Taming of the Shrew is a timeless tale of love, transformation, and the roles we play. The show takes place in the beautiful Pioneer Amphitheater carved out of and nestled into a natural basin in the majestic Palo Duro Canyon, the second largest canyon in the United States, sets a beautiful stage to hear the work of William Shakespeare, one of the greatest playwrights of all time.
