A Full Circle Theatre Original

Inspired by Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew

There are many ways to fix a PR crisis. Fake dating the problem was not supposed to be one of them. When the Padua Pythons acquire scandal-prone defenseman Pete Ruff on a one-season contract, Head of Communications Kate Baptista has one job: keep him clean, keep him quiet, and keep the team from becoming a punchline. But after one single moment turns Kate and Pete into the league’s newest obsession, they’re forced into a fake relationship that starts looking more real by the day.

Inspired by The Taming of the Shrew, this brand-new Full Circle original trades Shakespeare’s Padua for professional hockey, where media spin, sisterly tension, enemies-to-lovers sparks, and hockey nonsense collide. Expect fast banter, big feelings, fake dating chaos, and Full Circle’s signature blend of irreverent comedy and sneaky emotional damage.
