Director’s Program Note
“We know what we are, but know not what we may be.”
Welcome to The Taming of the Shrew at Brice Station Vineyards. It is thrilling to share the realization of a long-time vision with you tonight.
My gratitude is endless—for the village of artists who travelled great distances to work on this piece, the local community for their wealth of support, and the beautiful partnership with Brice Station Vineyards and the entire Mast family.
The synergy among theatrical artistry, artisanal winemaking, and the beauty of the Sierras have shaped this experience into something unforgettable.
I believe fiercely in Shakespeare’s work, the power of theatrical storytelling, and a fearless approach to comedy. I hope your experience tonight reflects those convictions, which, alongside my profound belief in this place, fuel endless possibilities for the future.
Thank you for helping transform that vision into a reality by attending tonight’s performance. I hope you will consider helping to shape our future together by making a donation today.
Sincerely, Tara Kayton
Producer & Director
