Sixty-Minute Shakespeare's 'Taming of the Shrew' is a useful tool to help classroom teachers take Shakespeare's work off the page and put it up on its feet with their students. Particularly the lesson plan for comedic stage combat in this book has the potential to really make a classroom come alive. -- Carl Holvick-Thomas, Education Program Manager with the San Francisco Shakespeare Festival

Author Information

Educator, director, playwright, and nationally known stage fight choreographer, Cass Foster is a lifelong master of Shakespearean theater.

The series includes A Midsummer Night's Dream, Hamlet, Macbeth, Much Ado About Nothing, Romeo and Juliet, Taming of the Shrew, Twelfth Night and Fosters eighth book, The Tempest. His experience as a professor emeritus of theatre has enabled him to condense the plays to be staged in 60 minutes rather than three hours, while maintaining the Bards enduring prose. Foster's diverse theatrical background includes producing, directing, and choreographing stage fights for over 200 productions for various types of theater. He is now based in Kauai, Hawaii.
