Kiss Me Kate centres around egotistical leading man, director, and producer Fred Graham, who is reunited with his ex-wife Lilli Vanessi when the two are forced to play opposite one another in a new production of Shakespeare’s Taming of the Shrew. Their battle continues onstage and off, as it becomes clear that, as much as this couple profess to hate each other, they are also still in love. Alongside their bickering, the show’s supporting actress, Lois Lane, supports her gambling boyfriend, Bill, as he attempts to evade the clutches of local gangsters.
Throw in a number of cases of mistaken identity, the mob, and comedic routines into the mix and you get Kiss Me, Kate — a dazzling Broadway classic that earned the very first Tony award for Best Musical.
