The Taming of the Shrew

Yesterday we began the following project:

The Taming of the Shrew-30pts

Now that you are familiar with at least one of Shakespeare’s comedies, you must show your expertise in the examination of another. Each group will be responsible for presenting/teaching the class a portion of the play. The presentations will begin on Thursday 4/10. This gives you 2 days to prepare. You must include the following in your presentation:

Analysis of theme
Analysis of how Shakespeare creates the comedy
Presentation of crucial dialogue
Performance of key scene-
choose a scene that critical to the understanding of the play/themes
explain the significance
perform it in the style of your choosing-this means you can rewrite it


The portions will be:
Introduction 1-2, Act I 1-2
Act II 1, Act III 1-2
Act IV 1-5
Act V 1-2

Your preparation time should include reading the play and research.
