Kiss Me, Kate Wednesday 26-Saturday 29 October 2022 Kiss Me, Kate is written by Bella and Samuel Spewack, with music and lyrics by Cole Porter. The story involves the production of a musical version of Shakespeare's The Taming Of the Shrew in Baltimore, and the conflict on and off-stage between Fred Graham (Petruchio), the show's director and womanising star, and his leading lady Lilli Vanessi (Katharine), who happens to be his ex-wife. A secondary romance concerns Lois Lane, the sexy young actress playing Bianca, who Fred has been romancing, and her roguish boyfriend, Bill Calhoun (Lucentio). After Bill runs afoul of some gangsters due to signing Fred’s name to an IOU, and a bunch of flowers get delivered to the wrong woman, sparks really start flying in this ‘play within a play’ Broadway classic. The scintillating score features such great tunes as, Wunderbar, So In Love, Tom, Dick Or Harry, I Hate Men, Always True To You In My Fashion, Brush Up Your Shakespeare, Too Darned Hot, From This Moment On, and Why Can't You Behave?
