Zkrocení zlé ženy je jednou z nejhranějších, ale také nejkontroverznějších her Williama Shakespeara. Petruchiovo „krocení“ Kateřiny je, jak bylo dobovým zvykem, neobyčejně brutální. Kateřina si však právě pro svou výmluvnost získává ve hře zcela výjimečné postavení. Její slovní půtky s Petruchiem připomínají neobyčejně prudký a agresivní slovní šerm, v němž se Kateřina Petruchiovi zcela vyrovná, dokonce ho mnohdy předčí. Právě tento její naostřený jazykový vtip propůjčuje hře neobyčejnou komediálnost a divadelní energii a ve svém účinku narušuje konvenční raně moderní představu mužské a ženské role. (patro.cz)
