Combine Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew" with Porter's music and lyrics to get "Kiss Me, Kate" an instant success with every cast and audience. This is a play-within-a-play where each cast member's on-stage life is complicated by what is happening offstage. Musical numbers include "Why Can't You Behave," "So In Love Am I," " Wunderbar," "Tom, Dick or Harry," "Were Thine That Special Face," "Too Darn Hot," and "Another Op'nin, Another Show." "Kiss Me, Kate" is fun, melodious and sophisticated.

The cast includes Melanie Horton (Kate), Timothy Kennedy (Fred), Brian Trampler (Man 1), Matt Gnonjek (Man 2), Suzanna Champion (Lois) and Andrew Bates (Bill). Rounding out the cast is Ryan Buehler (General Howell), Claude Diener (Ralph), Tim Fishbaugh (Pops), Traci Kerns (Hattie), Wes Munsil (Harry) with ensemble members Jennifer Arfston, Samantha Burley, Jessica Clayton, Dillon Colagrosso, James Crapes, Becky DeLio-Trampler, Michael Deni, Cara Lippitt, John Mackey, Amy Pyne, Chelsea Ringer, Andy Sievers, Joseph Taczak, Bethany Taylor, Christopher Turner and Jenny Weiss.
