Kiss Me, Kate

The 5th Avenue Theatre
1308 5th Avenue Seattle

Wave your jazz hands in the air, because Cole Porter's Kiss Me, Kate is coming to Seattle. The hilarious musical comedy, which became Porter's biggest Broadway hit, takes you behind the scenes of a production of Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew -- only this version of The Taming of the Shrew stars a feuding divorced couple. The sour exes turn their personal drama into fodder for an onstage war of the sexes unlike any other. With catchy songs like "So in Love," "Another Op'nin,' Another Show," "Too Darn Hot" and "Brush Up Your Shakespeare," the musical celebrates Shakespeare while also giving a nod to working in the theater -- including the joys, the madness and everything in between. Now you can take a trip back to the golden age of Hollywood when the show The New York Times called a "milestone musical" comes to the stage of The 5th Avenue Theatre.
