About Kiss Me, Kate London:
Shakespeare's beloved comedy takes an unexpected turn towards tragedy when feuding ex-spouses Fred and Lilli step into the limelight. Unfolding the intertwining tales of a theatre troupe grappling with love, jealousy, and mistaken identities, their adaptation of 'Shrew' proves anything but ordinary.
The offstage conflicts reach a boiling point for actor/director Fred Graham (Adrian Dunbar) and leading lady Lilli Vanessi (Stephanie J. Block), spilling chaos onto the opening night stage. As their onstage personas Petruchio and Katherine engage in verbal and physical warfare, the lines blur between Shakespearean characters and their real-life counterparts. Despite the fiery theatrics, the couple finds themselves rekindling their love amidst the tempest of passion. Will their offstage romance culminate in a joyous ending, or will it face an untimely curtain call?
Accompanied by a Tony award-winning score performed by a full-scale orchestra, this musical within a musical features iconic tunes such as 'Too Darn Hot,' 'So In Love,' and 'Brush Up Your Shakespeare.' With its witty writing, infectious melodies, and lively dance sequences, this delightful musical promises to brighten up your summer, even in typical British fashion.
