In this sharp reimagining, Paradise is a powerhouse record label and the battlefield is the charts.

Bianca is the next global pop export, polished and playlist-ready – but her outspoken sister Kate, a rock chick who won’t soften her edges, stands in the way.

Fast, funny, and theatrical, with Shakespeare’s original language colliding against today’s music industry, this Shrew asks: is Kate being tamed, or is she playing the game better than them all? In an industry built on image, who really gets the final cut?
