Kiss Me, Kate | 2024 revival with Stephanie J Block | Rehearsal interviews
We sit down with the cast and director of Kiss Me, Kate, starring Stephanie J Block and Adrian Dunbar.
Hailed as Cole Porter’s greatest musical comedy, the production is set for a 15-week run at London’s Barbican Theatre starting next month on 4 June 2024, with a press night scheduled for 18 June, concluding on 14 September.
Also appearing are Charlie Stemp (Crazy for You) as Bill Calhoun/Lucentio, while Georgina Onuorah (The Wizard of Oz) will play Lois Lane/Bianca, alongside two WhatsOnStage Award-winners - Nigel Lindsay (An Enemy of the People) and Hammed Animashaun (A Midsummer Night’s Dream) who play the famous gangster pairing in the show, Peter Davison (Dr Who) as the General, Josie Benson (as Hattie), Jack Butterworth (as Paul) and Jude Owusu (as Harry Trevor/Baptista), Carl Au (as Hortensio/Ensemble), Jordan Crouch (as Gremio/Ensemble), Gary Milner (as Ralph/Ensemble) and James Hume (as Pops/Ensemble).
Completing the company are Alisha Capon, Shani Cantor, Maya de Faria, Amelia Kinu Muus, Jacqui Jameson, Lucas Koch, Alex Lodge, Nell Martin, Anna McGarahan, John Stacey and Harrison Wilde. Swings are Robin Kent, Barry Drummond, Emily Goodenough and Maddie Harper.
Directed in a new production by Tony Award winner Bartlett Sher, the musical showcases a score by Porter and a book by Sam and Bella Spewack. Notably, this revival reunites producing team members behind successful shows such as Anything Goes and A Strange Loop, both at the Barbican.
The creative team also includes Anthony Van Laast as choreographer, Michael Yeargan as set designer, Catherine Zuber as costume designer, Donald Holder as lighting designer, Adam Fisher as sound designer, and Stephen Ridley as music supervisor. Casting is by Serena Hill.
The show follows onstage and off-stage antics of a theatre company attempting to produce a musical adaptation of William Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew. It includes numbers such as “Another Op’nin’, Another Show”, “Too Darn Hot”, “Tom, Dick or Harry” and “Brush Up Your Shakespeare”.

Bertie Carvel is such a brilliant actor. And a lovely man, I met him on the closing night of the 47th.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The whole word should be able to see this. Please uploud it to some platform that allows people to see it because not everyone has the opportunity to see it live... please please ❤
I LOVE SARAH JESSICA PARKER
This is an nowadays artist an fukin marvelous modern actress, I've been at "Dorian Grey" play fully with my body soul satisfaction admiration and just next level performance, thank u Sarah Snook(u became my idol actress) and to all Team, for unforgettable moments, Sophisticated brilliant Work
Met Jodie Steel, lovely person!
It’s crazy how much the costumes have changed, the ones for the actual show then look like they could be the ones that fans or cosplayers are wearing today
This should be on Netflix
This was awesome!
If it comes to the US I’m going to go crazy
i hope to meet some of yall wsc people in globalss! I have my regionals tomorrow!

Stranger things in the 50’s

I don't know why but he reminds me of a young Matthew Macfadyen, so charming!
big DEH fan but im only finding out about this now????? also help i cant find anything on stephen anthony thats such a crime his vocals is amazing wtffff
I like to see the movie village of the giants into a Broadway show
Watched it and omg the best thing I have ever watched, absolutely incredible, the guy who played Henry omg he is amazing
I'm looking forward to seeing this show, I've heard so many promising things about it.
I absolute loathe the movie and the two notes songs are so terrible. Hope they do a really good makeover
sometimes u can really tell when a movie is labor of love and genuine care. this is one of those times. ❤
Arianne is 30 and Cynthia is nearly 40?? Aren't they rather old to be playing what should be the same age as college students? These roles should be played by younger, newer actresses who can sing. Disappointing.
It's one of the best things I saw in my life. A must see experience.
Geldolf is very quiet about the genocide in Palestine. Never liked Geldolf.
❤🎉
really cannot express enough how badly i need this on broadway + a recording.

Looks like they tried too hard to literalize the movie.
found this dude through the scarlet pimpernel/jekyll and hyde. really interesting to see not only that he's still writing, but that he also did death note and FOTNS! excited for the west end production of this
God, I love this playwright. He is so brilliant. Thanks for posting.
