Synopsis
The
egotistical performer Fred Graham is reunited with his
ex-wife Lilli Vanessi in the leading roles of Petruchio
and Kate in Taming of the Shrew. Throughout the show
they fight and obviously still love each other. Meanwhile,
due to mistaken identity, two gangsters harass Fred.
Also, two former cabaret performers cast in Taming of
the Shrew, Lois Lane and Bill Calhoun struggle to keep
their romance alive.
History
of the Show
Kiss Me Kate was a comeback triumph for an aging
Cole Porter. In 1948 Kiss Me Kate exceeded his
Anything Goes as a sucessful musical with cohesive
book and score, and proved to be his biggest hit. Great
songs include: Why Can't You Behave, Tom, Dick or
Harry, So In Love, Wunderbar, Too Darn Hot.
This masterpiece won the first Tony Award presented
for Best Musical.
