The Acting Authority: "The Taming of the Shrew"
Hello, WHAM! 101.1FM listeners! It is I, the newest star of The Shanachie Theater, DJ Zazzy Yas, also known by my stage name as Yasmin. Wait, that doesn't sound right. Anyway....In an effort to learn more about my craft, I decided to check out The Taming of the Shrew. Now, I knew nothing of this thing when I first heard of it, but I have to say, after seeing it, this play reminded me of a movie I saw. What was it' It had Joker and Robin in it. Batman' No. Well, whatever it was, the movie and this play are pretty awesome. There is a very talented cast in the theater's Repertory Company. I don't know what repertory means, but it doesn't really matter cuz they deliver! But, Acting Authority I am, I want to give a few critiques to the play itself. So this is my "Ten Things I Hate About' This Play". Huh. That's almost a snazzy name.
10. Written by Shakespeare. I can't understand a doggone word this dude is saying. 9. Kat's boyfriend seems just as crazy as she is, yet she is the social reject of the community while everyone regards him with awe. 8. Kat's boyfriend woos her with reverse psychology. I'm not a big fan of reverse psychology because I'm not a big fan of forward psychology. 5. Two dudes were fighting over Bianca but Kat is clearly the coolest chick. Of the two dudes, I think I liked the one named Mercutio the best. I could be thinking of a different play, though. C. This is not a musical. Wait, that's a good thing. I only just recently got the "Frozen" songs out of my head. 2. There are a whole lot of lies and deception and mistaken identity going on, especially between love interests. That's an odd way to show your love.
And last but not least, my number one reason on my "Ten Things I Hate About This Play' is I did not like how Kat had to get Patrick out of detention by flashing the soccer coach. I think she should have saved that for Patrick, but I always was a romantic. Granted, I'm not sure how many of these reasons were in the play versus the movie, but I think my points are all valid regardless.
So, let's cut to some music. Playing a couple of my random favs right now; "Bad Reputation" by Joan Jett, "Cruel To Be Kind" by Letters to Cleo, "Even Angels Fall" by Jessica Riddle, and then "I Want You To Want Me" by Letters to Cleo. " I'm sure that movie title will come to me during the commercial break" I'll let you know...
