TAMING OF THE SHREW
By William Shakespeare • Directed by Robert Lundy-Paine
The Taming of the Shrew is a taut, juicy physical romp set today in the dangerously
exciting biker underworld of low-dealing and high stakes. After an embarrassing sex
scandal, Petruchio finds himself without a livelihood, without a woman and most
importantly without cash. When he learns that the father of the dangerous and sexy
Katharine has offered up a large endowment to the man who can woo and marry his
daughter, Petruchio sees a way to bring himself back to his former glory and get himself a lover.

BEEKEEPER
By Jennifer Roberts •
Directed by Laura Lundy-Paine
Oleta’s father Francis dies under mysterious circumstances, and a fully-grown Oleta
must return to the small Oregon town she left behind. Oleta is now forced to
confront the ghosts of her father and the mystery of the bee colonies he kept, while
struggling to come to terms with the horrific events of one afternoon long ago.
Alive with mystery and emotional force, Beekeeper takes us on a journey from past to
present and blurs the lines between what is, what could have been, and what must be.
Beekeeper is a haunting new work by Bay Area playwright, Jennifer Roberts.
