Show Notes
SYNOPSIS:
A teenage “Moonlighting”’ fan is forced by his mother to do his homework rather than watch the show. His homework is to read William Shakespeare’s “The Taming of the Shrew.”
The show transforms back in time to a day in Padua, Italy, in 1593. The main characters of “Moonlighting”’ enact the remainder of the show with their version of William Shakespeare's play “The Taming of the Shrew”’ in period costume and setting.
Katherina’s father is in search of a suitor for his feisty daughter. Along the way, many in-jokes refer to the real show.
Eventually, Petruchio forcibly marries Katherina while she is tied up in a church, after which he sings a rockin’ version of “Good Lovin’.”
The couple fight, slam doors, and provide us with the usual fast-paced dialogue, but finally fall in love.
