Lucentio and Bianca hurry to meet the priest Biondello bribed to perform the marriage. Gremio greets Petruchio, Katherine, Grumio and the real Vincentio at Lucentio's house, where they are met by the Merchant, who insists that he's Lucentio's father. Vincentio challenges him and chaos ensues as Tranio tries desperately to keep up the ruse. The newlyweds finally arrive and seeing no way out, they confess their gambit and beg forgiveness from their fathers. Once all is sorted out, Katherine confronts her father and forces him to reckon with his poor treatment of her. Later, the three newlywed couples (Katherine and Petruchio, Lucentio and Bianca, and Hortension and “The Widow”) celebrate their unions. Bianca and Lucentio are already off to a rocky start as they squabble over how much she's allowed to eat. Hortensio realizes he may not live long as the widow's fourth husband. Only Petruchio and Katherine seem to be partners in marriage, and when put to the test, Katherine finds new words to describe the meaning of true love.

Seeing he has no chance against Lucentio (AKA “Cambio”), Hortensio drops his “Licio” disguise and swears off women. Biondello, meanwhile, has found an old merchant who will pretend to be Lucentio's father, Vincenzio, so that Lucentio can marry Bianca without getting his real father's permission. Meanwhile, Katherine wakes in the comfort of Petruchio's home and is further smitten as he describes the goings-on at his farm. Later, Baptista gets all rights to Vinzentio's property from the man he thinks is Lucentio's father but is really the old and very agreeable merchant. Hortensio goes to Petrucio's house and is greeted by Grumio. As they rush to attend Bianca's hasty marriage they're interrupted by the arrival of an old gentleman who's lost his way trying to find his son. It doesn't take long for everyone to realize the gentleman is none other than Vincenzio, Lucentio's real father. Incensed to learn that his son is being married without his consent, he joins Petruchio, Katherine, Grumio and Hortensio on their way to the wedding.

Katherine reluctantly goes to church to be married, only to learn through an elaborate pantomime performed by Grumio and Biondello that Petruchio is running late. Finally, a drunk priest arrives with Petruchio, who is dressed as a gondolier. They make a mockery of the wedding but a humiliated Katherine is nonetheless sent off with her new husband by her clueless father, who reminisces fondly about young love. The newlyweds eventually arrive at Petruchio's frigid home in the pouring rain, where he tells her that he lives selflessly in poverty with seven penitents who share his bed and follow elaborate rituals before eating. Katherine nearly goes mad with hunger as Petruchio demands that they follow every step of the ritual before dining on the food delivered by the kitchen mistress, Dorcas. At last, Katherine realizes it's all a joke and she devours her food with joy and laughter. Once sated, she tells Petruchio she's going upstairs to get ready to lose her virginity to him, but Petruchio tells her he has no intention of making love to her until she is well rested and truly wants to be with him. It only makes Katherine more attracted to him, but Petruchio insists that she get a good night's sleep as he privately confesses to feeling the rekindling of his long dormant passion.  The PLAY ON PODCAST SERIES, “SHREW!”, was written by AMY FREED and directed by ART MANKE.

Petruchio negotiates with Baptista for Katherine's hand until Licio emerges from his tutoring session bruised and battered. It only strengthens Petruchio's resolve to woo Katherine and when she arrives, the two engage in a spirited match of wits. Katherine reluctantly agrees to go with Petruchio when he tells her that her father has agreed to marry her off to him. Gremio and Tranio (as Lucentio) immediately try to out-do each other in their bid for Bianca's hand, with Baptista as auctioneer. Tranio wins the contest and is promised Bianca's hand in marriage provided his father (Vincentio the tomato king) comes to the wedding in person. Tranio privately conspires to find a look-alike to pretend to be Vincentio. Meanwhile, Hortensio (still pretending to be Licio the Banjo Tutor) tries to woo Bianca with his instrument until Lucentio (as Cambio the Latin Tutor) interrupts and sends him away. He confesses his love to Bianca, who secretly invites him to her chamber after lunch. Hortensio returns and tries again with Bianca, failing miserably.

Petruchio tells Hortensio he's come to Padua to find a partner to give him renewed life after grieving the loss of his first wife. Hortensio tells him about Baptista's daughter, Katherine, but warns him that she's quite the shrew. Petruchio realizes he knows her father and is not put off. Hortensio agrees to provide an introduction if, in exchange, Petruchio presents him to Signior Baptista as a tutor for the object of his affection: Bianca. As they agree to the deal, Grumio announces the arrival of two other rivals vying for Bianca: Gremio and Lucentio, now disguised as Cambio. Hortensio introduces them to Petruchio and tells them of his intentions with Katherine, who once coupled will make Bianca available for marriage. Meanwhile, Katherine laments her isolation in her chamber at Baptista's house. She impulsively frees her sister's canaries from their cage to find the freedom she craves. When Bianca enters and sees what Katherine's done, the two fight savagely until Signor Baptista arrives to break it up. He sends Bianca away and scolds Katherine, lamenting his struggles as a single father until he hears the arrival of Gremio, Grumio, Tranio (as Lucentio), Lucentio (as Cambio), Hortensio (as Licio) and Petruchio. Petruchio tells Baptista of his lineage and his desire to woo Katherine. Baptista says she'll never agree but Petruchio persists, introducing Hortensio (as “Licio”), who he says will make inroads as her banjo tutor. The others go to great lengths to outdo each other as they compete for Bianca. Gremio presents a Latin tutor (Lucentio-as-Cambio) and Tranio-as-Lucentio claims to be the son of Vincentio, “the Tomato King”.  Baptista welcomes them all to his house and wishes them luck with his daughters.

Mistress Slapbottom clears the pub of all its rowdy revelers, leaving her alone with a woman who laments being tasked with ghost writing a sexist play about the taming of a shrew. She begins a page one rewrite, making the female protagonist, Katherine, a woman who loves learning and cannot stand being cooped up by the men who try to control her. We meet Lucentio and Tranio, who are visiting Padua. Strolling through the university, Lucentio is immediately smitten by Katherine's sister, Bianca, an airhead who loves being in a man's world. He conspires with Tranio to disguise himself as a tutor in order to gain access to Bianca by way of instruction.

As Brutus waits for Cassius in the rebel camp, he learns from Lucilius that Cassius is not as friendly as he once was. As soon as he arrives, Cassius accuses Brutus of wronging him. Not wanting their soldiers to see them fighting, they withdraw into Brutus's tent to carry out their argument in private. It all comes to an end when Cassius offers his dagger to Brutus and bares his chest for Brutus to kill him. Once they make their peace, Brutus tells Cassius that his wife, Portia, has killed herself by swallowing hot coals. Cassius is shocked and saddened but Brutus insists that they focus on their battle plans. Cassius suggests they wait for Antony and Octavius' armies to exhaust themselves reaching them where they are now but Brutus disagrees, saying they should meet their enemy half way, at Philippi. Cassius gives in. Once alone, Brutus is visited by Caesar's ghost, who tells him they will meet again at Philippi. Brutus wakes his guards but they all say they didn't see anything. He sends word to Cassius to be ready to march ahead of him the next morning. **** The PLAY ON PODCAST SERIES, “JULIUS CAESAR”, was written by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE and translated into modern English verse by SHISHIR KURUP.

Caesar approaches the Temple, noting that the “Ides of March” have come. He refuses to read Artemidorus's warning. Cassius worries their plot has been discovered but Brutus reassures him. As they approach the Temple, Metellus Cimber pleads with Caesar to return her brother, Publius, from banishment. Caesar refuses. Once inside the Temple, the conspirators surround Caesar and stab him to death, proclaiming “Tyranny is dead!” Antony's servant enters and reports that Antony has fled to his house. Brutus invites the conspirators to bathe their hands in Caesar's blood. As a crowd assembles outside the Temple, Antony's servant returns to ask for safe passage for Antony to speak with the assassins. Brutus grants his request. Antony enters and offers his life unless they can justify their actions. Brutus tells him that all will be explained once they've quelled the crowd. Antony shakes hands with each of the conspirators and requests permission to speak at Caesar's funeral. Cassius is reluctant but Brutus agrees, making Antony promise not to speak poorly about them. Once alone with Caesar's body, Antony mourns and vows revenge. Octavius's guard enters to give word that Octavius is on his way to the city. Antony tells him to report to Octavius about what's happened and to warn him not to arrive until they see how things unfold. **** The PLAY ON PODCAST SERIES, “JULIUS CAESAR”, was written by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE and translated into modern English verse by SHISHIR KURUP.

Brutus paces in his study, unable to sleep. His wife, Portia, enters and begs him to tell her why he's so troubled. He does his best to comfort her and tells her he'll explain everything later. Caius Ligarius, an ailing Senator, enters to meet with Brutus, who convinces him to join the assassination plot. Caesar has a hard night as well. His wife, Calphurnia, tells him of terrible dreams she's been having about his murder and says they are omens for Caesar not to go out of the house. When Decius arrives to accompany Caesar to the Temple, Caesar explains that he is staying home on account of Calphurnia's dreams. Decius tells him that the blood in Calphurnia's dreams is a symbol of the new life that Caesar gives his followers and that he will be seen as a coward if he stays home. Caesar changes his mind and leaves with Decius and the rest of the conspirators. Elsewhere, a poet and prophet named Artemidorus writes a letter to Caesar warning him to beware, naming all the traitors who are out to get him. He vows to hand Caesar his letter when he passes by. Outside the Temple, Portia frets over the conspiracy that her husband has confided to her. She tells Lucius to go into the Temple and report back to her about what's going on. When the Soothsayer passes, Portia grills her to find out what she's going to tell Caesar. The Soothsayer responds that she is only going to tell Caesar to befriend himself and beware of others. **** The PLAY ON PODCAST SERIES, “JULIUS CAESAR”, was written by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE and translated into modern English verse by SHISHIR KURUP.

Caska and Cicero meet on a stormy night. Caska trembles at the omens he's seen until Cassius arrives and dispels his fears with the encouragement that they're not alone in fighting tyranny. Cinna nervously joins them, expressing her hope that Brutus will join their conspiracy. Cassius reassures her that Brutus is on board. Later that night, Brutus ruminates at home on the possibility of killing Caesar, deciding that murder is the only way to stop him. His servant, Lucius, announces the arrival of cloaked guests. Brutus welcomes them and Cassius introduces the co-conspirators: Trebonius, Decius Brutus, Caska, Cinna and Metellus Cimber. Together, they plan Caesar's assassination. Cassius suggests that they swear an oath but Brutus says oaths aren't necessary because their plan is noble. They all agree not to include Cicero in their plans. Cassius suggests that they also kill Mark Antony but Brutus advises against it, saying they will appear “too bloody” and that Antony won't be a threat once Caesar is dead. When Cassius worries that Caesar won't come to the Temple, Decius offers to bring him to the Temple herself. Cassius says they'll all go to Caesar's house together instead. Metellus suggests that they include Caius Ligarius in their plans and Brutus agrees, then sends everyone on their way, telling them all to freshen up so their looks won't betray their purposes. **** The PLAY ON PODCAST SERIES, “JULIUS CAESAR”, was written by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE and translated into modern English verse by SHISHIR KURUP.

Activists assemble outside the Stadium to celebrate Caesar when they're interrupted by Flavius and Murellus, who challenge them to honor not just one man but all the people who helped in the Movement. Once the group breaks up and moves on, Flavius tells Murellus to help him take down all the posters celebrating Caesar. Inside the stadium, Caesar and his entourage–including his closest friend, Antony, and his wife, Calphurnia–are enjoying the thrills of a drag race when they're interrupted by an old woman who warns Caesar to beware the “Ides of March”. Caesar dismisses the woman and tells his entourage to enjoy the race with him. Cassius and Brutus stay behind and share their honest feelings about Caesar. Cassius tells Brutus he thinks Caesar is weak, spurring Brutus to confess he's uneasy with the way things are going in Rome. As they return from the race, Caesar sees the two men talking and tells Antony he thinks Cassius is dangerous. Brutus pulls Caska aside and asks him for details about what took place at the race. Caska describes how Caesar refused the crown three times when it was offered to him, further endearing him to the crowd. Caska also describes how Caesar “fell down” and foamed at the mouth. Brutus suggests that Caesar must have the “falling sickness” (epilepsy). Cassius says Caesar is not like them. Caska goes on to describe how Flavius and Murellus were punished for pulling down placards and posters celebrating Caesar, warning Cassius and Brutus to watch how they treat him. After Brutus and Caska depart, Cassius muses to himself about how easily Brutus can be manipulated. **** The PLAY ON PODCAST SERIES, “JULIUS CAESAR”, was written by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE and translated into modern English verse by SHISHIR KURUP.

Biondello tells Bianca and Lucentio that he's arranged for a priest to perform their marriage and sends them on their way as Gremio approaches. Petruchio, Kate and Vincentio arrive at Baptista's house and are greeted by the Pedant who (much to the real Vincentio's consternation) claims to be Lucentio's father. Biondello returns from the hasty marriage to find both the real and fake Vincentio with Baptista and is forced to pretend the Pedant is his master. As Vincentio berates Biondello for pretending not to know him, Tranio returns and tries to continue the ruse, claiming the Pedant is his father. Chaos ensues until Lucentio returns with Bianca. With no way out, Lucentio confesses all to his father. Vincentio, overjoyed to see his son alive, forgives him. Baptista accepts the marriage. Gremio accepts he's been beaten and joins the group for a free meal at Baptista's. Kate and Petruchio revel in their newfound love. After dinner, Petruchio challenges all the newly married men to see whose wife respects her husband the most. In the end, it's Kate who helps her husband win, ending the series with a speech about a woman's responsibility to her husband.

Grumio taunts Katherine (as instructed by his master) until Petruchio and Hortensio arrive for dinner. Petruchio rushes Kate through her meal before welcoming a tailor and haberdasher who have made exquisite clothing for Katherine. Petruchio rejects all their offerings over Katherine's objections, but she begins to catch on to his strategy, realizing that she must play along with everything Petruchio does and be “agreeable” in order to get what she wants. Meanwhile, Biondello has primed Baptista for a visit from Tranio (disguised as Lucentio) and the Pedant (disguised as Lucentio's father, Vincentio). Baptista welcomes them and seals the deal for Lucentio to marry his daughter. On the road back to Baptista's home, Kate and Petruchio keep up their game of opposites until they are met by an old man who is making his way to Padua. He introduces himself as Lucentio's father (the real Vincentio). Petruchio embraces him as family, telling him that his son has just married the sister of his wife.

Grumio reaches Petruchio's house ahead of the newlyweds and prepares the servants for their arrival. But nothing could brace them against Petruchio's abuse. He rejects the meals they've made and treats them so poorly that Kate implores him to be more patient. Petruchio insists they go straight to bed, where he lectures her on the virtues of abstinence. Meanwhile, as Tranio keeps up his Lucentio impersonation, Hortensio drops his “Litio '' persona and laments Bianca's affection for Cambio (the real Lucentio). Together, they renounce Bianca and Hortensio declares that he'll seek the affections of a wealthy widow. Free of Hortensio, Tranio celebrates with Bianca and Lucentio until Biondello arrives with the news that he's found a drunk Pedant who will be the perfect person to impersonate Luentio's father, Vincenzio. Tranio and Lucentio work up a plan to fool the Pedant into believing he's in danger in Padua because he's from Mantua but that he'll be safe if he pretends to be Lucentio's father.

The guests assemble for the wedding but the groom is nowhere to be found. Katherina frets with her father until Biondello arrives with word that Petruchio is on his way. The groom arrives, disheveled and drunk, on a shabby horse, with his servant by his side. As the wedding finally gets underway, Tranio tells Lucentio they have to find someone to play the part of his father (Vincentio) in order to convince Baptista that Lucentio is as rich as Tranio promised in Episode Three. Gremio emerges from the church and describes Petruchio's lewd behavior at the altar. Petruchio steps out with his bride and announces that they have to be on their way. Katherina pleads with her husband to stay for the celebration but Petruchio refuses. Incensed, she rails at him, at her father and at all the guests, to no avail. The crowd gets rowdy and clamors for the feast. Petruchio puts Kate on his horse and rides off. Tranio (disguised as Lucentio) steals a moment to woo Bianca and Baptista invites everyone to eat cake.

Kate and Petruchio meet at last! The fireworks are lit and the couple goes head to head until Baptista arrives to check on their progress. Petruchio announces (over Kate's objections) that the two have agreed to marry that Sunday. Baptista celebrates the news and turns his attention to the marriage of his second daughter, Bianca. Gremio and Tranio (disguised as Lucentio) compete to prove who has the most to offer in the way of riches. Tranio outbids Gremio and Baptista promises him his youngest daughter provided Tranio can prove his father has the resources he claims. Once alone, Tranio conspires to find someone who can pretend to be Lucentio's wealthy father. Back in Baptista's house, the real Lucentio “tutors” Bianca in Latin and secretly reveals his true identity. Bianca is receptive to Lucentio's overtures but warns she needs to get to know him before she agrees to marry. Hortensio finishes tuning his lute and takes over from Lucentio to teach Bianca how to read music, whereupon he confesses his love to her. She is not nearly as receptive to this fop, who stews in anger and vows to defeat Lucentio.

A student (and eligible bachelor) named Lucentio arrives in Padua with his servant, Tranio, to study philosophy. As they take in the sights they come across the wealthy Baptista and his two daughters, Bianca and Katherina. Bianca is trailed by two suitors, Hortensio and Gremio, who are vying for her affection. Baptista tells them that neither of them will win Bianca's hand until he marries off his older daughter, Katherina. Meantime, Baptista will keep Bianca at home, seen only by the tutors who he employs to advance her education. Hortensio and Gremio scheme to find a husband for the contrary Katherina. Lucentio, smitten by the beautiful Bianca, hatches a plan with Tranio to gain access to Bianca's house by changing clothes with his servant and posing as a tutor while Tranio pretends to be Lucentio in order to build Lucentio's social profile and entertain his father's guests. When Lucentio's other servant, Biondello, arrives, Lucentio tells him that he and Tranio switched clothes because he killed a man and has to escape the city. He tasks Biondello with waiting on Tranio and instructs him to refer to Tranio as Lucentio. Elsewhere, the self-assured Petruchio, along with his servant, Grumio, arrives from Verona at his friend Hortensio's house. Hortensio greets him warmly and learns from Petruchio that he's come to Padua to find a wife from a wealthy family. Hortensio tells him about Baptista's daughter, Katherina, but warns him about her ferocious temper. Petruchio is intrigued and vows to make Katherina his wife. Hortensio offers to facilitate the introduction provided Petruchio helps him pass for a music teacher so he can get access to Bianca.

Romeo and Juliet reluctantly part ways at dawn before her mother enters to tell Juliet to prepare to marry Paris on Thursday. Juliet protests first to her mother and then to her father, who violently berates her for refusing to marry. Lady Capulet takes her husband's side and shames Juliet before departing, leaving her to beg the Nurse to intervene. The Nurse, however, advises Juliet to take Paris's hand and forget about Romeo. Juliet pretends to agree but secretly goes to Friar Laurence's cell, where she runs into Paris, who is seeking the Friar's services for their upcoming wedding. Juliet brushes off Paris's affection and after he departs, laments her woes, threatening to kill herself with a dagger she snatches from the Friar's chamber. The Friar consoles Juliet with a plan for her to drink a potion that will make it look like she is dead and that she will send word of the plan to Romeo. They will then free Juliet from the Montague tomb and together, Romeo and Juliet will escape to Mantua. Back at the Capulet home, the wedding preparations are well underway. Juliet returns and begs her father's forgiveness, then retires to her chamber where she dismisses her mother and Nurse before drinking the potion.

Benvolio tells the Prince how Mercutio was killed by Tybalt, and Tybalt by Romeo. The Capulets call for Romeo's execution but the Prince punishes him with banishment from Verona instead. Back at home, Juliet awaits news of her rendezvous with Romeo but when the Nurse arrives and informs her of what has happened, she threatens to kill herself. The Nurse calms her by saying she'll find Romeo and bring them together. Romeo, hiding in Friar Laurence's cell, mourns his banishment and threatens to take his own life until Juliet's Nurse arrives with news of her desire to be with him. Romeo agrees to go to Juliet's chamber and to leave for Mantua by nightfall, where he will stay until the dust has settled and he and Juliet can return in marriage to Verona. Meanwhile, Lord Capulet comforts his grieving wife by setting a date with Paris for him to wed Juliet in two days.  Next Chapter Podcasts presents the NAATCO and Two River Theater production of “ROMEO AND JULIET”, written by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE and translated into modern English verse by HANSOL JUNG.

The following morning, Mercutio and Benvolio find Romeo and tease him mercilessly for ghosting them after the party. Juliet's nurse arrives with her servingman, Peter, in search of Romeo. The three young men have fun at her expense until Romeo reveals he's the one she's looking for. Together, they plan for Juliet to meet him at Friar Laurence's cell. The Nurse returns to the Capulet's house and toys with Juliet until she can't hold back the good news any longer. That evening, in the Friar's verdant cell where plants and botany abound, Juliet and Romeo are wedded. Meanwhile, out on the street, Mercutio and Benvolio while away the time until Juliet's cousin, Tybalt, arrives and picks a fight with Mercutio. As they spar, Romeo arrives and tries to make peace with Tybalt. Mercutio insists on fighting and is mortally wounded in the fray. Romeo, incensed, plunges his sword into Tybalt, killing him in revenge.

Meanwhile, Mercutio and Benvolio try to get Romeo in better spirits as they prepare to crash the Capulet's party. Once the household completes its feverish preparations, Lord Capulet welcomes all his guests to the party. Romeo spots the beautiful Juliet across the crowded room and asks one of the revelers for her name. Tybalt, Juliet's quick-tempered cousin, recognizes Romeo's voice and seethes with rage. Hoping to avoid any further unrest, Lord Capulet scolds Tybalt into submission but Tybalt quietly vows to get his revenge. Romeo greets Juliet with a song, which she joins in duet. The two are smitten, but when Romeo finds out that Juliet is a Capulet and Juliet finds out Romeo is a Montague, they reluctantly go their separate ways.  Next Chapter Podcasts presents the NAATCO and Two River Theater production of “ROMEO AND JULIET”, written by WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE and translated into modern English verse by HANSOL JUNG.

The cast assembles at the recording studio to create the Play On podcast series, “Romeo and Juliet”. Two actors take on the roles of Sampson and Peter, members of the house of Capulet, as the rest of the cast pretend to be the people of Verona milling about in the streets. When Balthasar and Abraham show up from the House of Montague, Sampson and Peter pick a fight with them. Benvolio, a friend of the House of Montague, tries to break it up, but Tybalt, a firebrand from the House of Capulet, escalates the violence. The Prince arrives on the scene and finally ends the melee, warning the rival factions that if there's another brawl, they'll pay for it with their lives. In the aftermath, Lady Capulet asks Benvolio about her lovesick son, Romeo. Benvolio promises Lady Capulet he'll try to talk him out of his melancholy. Romeo appears, strumming his guitar, and confesses to Benvolio that his crush, Rosaline, has sworn to live a life of chastity as a nun. Benvolio tells Romeo to start looking for other women to woo, but Romeo says it will only remind him of his heartbreak. Back at Lord Capulet's house, Count Paris asks Juliet's father for her hand in marriage.
