Women, Politics, and Humor on Stage: Directing “The Taming”

Kayla Minton Kaufman

Research output: Thesis › Honors Thesis

Abstract

As a culmination of my Theatre Arts degree, I directed Lauren Gunderson's "The Taming." The three-woman cast was composed of Tiffani Williams (Patricia), Jena Fakroddin (Katherine), and Alex Luce (Bianca). In the play, Katherine, a contender for Miss America, kidnaps Patricia, a conservative senator's aide, and Bianca, a liberal blogger, and demands they join her in rewriting the Constitution of the United States of America. The production played for three nights in Foley 110, a black box space, with a full house each night.
