The great Cole Porter poured a huge amount of his best music into this wonderful romantic comedy. The show has scintillating hits like Wunderbar, So In Love, Always True To You In My Fashion, Why Can’t You Behave, From This Moment On and the sexy steamy Too Darn Hot. A great stream of lovely melodies allied to words by the wittiest lyricist America ever produced.This modern version won five Tony Awards on Broadway and Best Musical in London in 2001.
‘The Taming of the Shrew, The Musical’ is about to open and Shakespeare now includes lines like ‘he may have hairs upon his chest but sister so has Lassie’. In the show are Lilli Vanessi and her ex-husband Fred Graham. Fred is after Broadway singer Lois, but she likes Bill, a losing gambler.Add in Lilli’s mysterious new love, a pair of gangsters collecting a gambling debt, plus various confusions and misunderstandings and watch the sparks fly. Fred and Lilli’s personal life mirrors and then takes over the characters they are playing on stage. Happily, in the end, whilst Lilli and Fred couldn’t live together they discover that they can’t live apart. Aaah!
Wonderful songs, comic moments, and fresh modern dancing choreographed by the society’s fresh modern choreographer. What better way to spend an evening !
