The beautiful Bianca is besieged by suitors, but her father refuses them all until her older sister, the bold and fiercely independent Katherina, finds an appropriate match. Larger-than-life Petruchio accepts the challenge. However, Katherina will not be tamed easily. Their heated battles hurl this comedy forward as they both learn about compromise and understanding.
