Kiss Me, Kate at Bowie Playhouse

Before Ricky and Lucy or Ross and Rachel there was Fred and Villi, the hilarious bickering couple at the heart of Cole Porter's jazzy musical comedy Kiss Me, Kate. As the former husband-and-wife acting team attempts to stage a touring production of Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew, life begins imitating art and the sparks really start to fly. Kiss Me, Kate's original 1948 production won five Tonys, including the first-ever award for Best Musical, and features classic Cole Porter numbers like "Too Darn Hot," "Wunderbar " and "Brush Up Your Shakespeare." Now you can take a trip back to the golden age of Hollywood with 2nd Star Productions' version at the Bowie Playhouse.
