Sothern and Marlowe Open The Taming of the Shrew in New York
In New York on October 17 the Knickerbocker hosted E H Sothern and Julia Marlowe in The Taming of the Shrew. Critics note a broader, more primitive version omitting Christopher Sly and restoring suitors intrigues with bold speeches. Reviews praise strong acting, with Marlowe’s Katherine and Sothern’s Petruchio delivering entertaining, farcical energy.
