The available evidence supports a very early date for the play's creation, and 1590-1591 is often suggested. The Taming of the Shrew must be dated in relation to the anonymous play The Taming of A Shrew, entered on the Stationers' Register in 1594 and printed the same year. The 1594 edition of The Taming of A Shrew is now generally thought of as a 'bad' quarto of Shakespeare's play. It appears to be a memorial reconstruction by actors of The Taming of the Shrew, with assistance from an unknown writer, and was probably written in 1592.)Description source: Created from auth.Origin Date(s)1590-?/1592-?
