by Iris Moebius
- Feb 16, 2016
Cole Porters erfolgreichstes Musical KISS ME, KATE spielt raffiniert mit der Handlung, ist ein Stuck-im-Stuck, in dem die pragnantesten Szenen der beruhmten Shakespeare-Vorlage aufgegriffen werden. Die Szenenwechsel sind so rasant wie amusant und niemand muss ohne Ohrwurm nach Hause gehen! Das zeigt das Opernhaus Nurnberg seit diesem Wochenende. Als zwielichtige Ganoven mit bestechenden Shakespeare-Kenntnissen treten keine Geringeren als Lokalmatadoren Heißmann und Rassau auf den Plan. Sophie Berner und Christian Alexander Muller stehen in den zentralen Rollen auf der Buhne, unterstutzt werden sie von Antonia Welke als Lois Lane und Manuel Dengler als Bill.

If you need a reminder of the timelessness of a good melody, of the allure of crisp, intelligent lyrics, go no further than the Sidney Harmon Theatre in downtown D.C. Under the direction of Alan Paul, with smooth and sexy choreography from Michele Lynch, Shakespeare Theatre Company's KISS ME, KATE opened last week to a well-deserved standing ovation.
