Kiss Me, Kate
by Waco Civic Theatre

Mar. 22

Broadway meets the Bard in Kiss Me, Kate — the Tony Award-winning masterpiece where Shakespearean comedy, backstage drama, and showbiz chaos explode into musical magic.

When a feuding divorced couple is forced to play opposite each other in a musical version of The Taming of the Shrew, the result is pure theatrical fireworks. Tempers ignite, passions flare, and the line between performance and reality disappears in a whirl of wit, romance, and perfectly timed disaster.

Armed with Cole Porter’s legendary score — including “Too Darn Hot,” “Brush Up Your Shakespeare,” and “So in Love” — Kiss Me, Kate delivers the full Broadway experience: dazzling choreography, knockout vocals, and the timeless thrill of live theatre at its boldest.

✨ What We’re Looking For: Dynamic actors, singers, and dancers who can bring both 1940s musical glamour and Shakespearean flair to life! Whether you’re a seasoned triple threat or a fresh face ready to shine, we want to see your personality, style, and love for theatre sparkle.
