The Provoked Husband and Garrick’s Alteration Review
A 1756 adaptation of The Taming of the Shrew titled The Provoked Husband is praised for its entertaining acting, especially secondary roles, with high regard for Garrick’s creditable contribution. Petruchio is critiqued. Knivet is not favored. An inserted letter from Sir Henry Fielding to Sir Robert Walpole mocks greatness and public life, ending with a note on where Walpole resided.
