Prior to the first act, an induction frames the play as a kind of history played in front of a befuddled drunkard named Christopher Sly who is tricked into believing he is a lord. The play is performed in order to distract Sly from his wife, who is actually Bartholomew, a servant, dressed as a woman. In the play performed for Sly, the shrew is Katherina, the eldest daughter of Baptista Minola, a lord in Padua. Numerous men, including Gremio and Tranio, deem Katherina an unworthy option for marriage because of her notorious assertiveness and willfulness.
