Kiss me Kate is one of songwriter Cole Porter’s most popular shows. It had proved to be an enduring personal triumph for songwriter Porter and, judging by the strength of the opening night, it was also to be considered a triumph for the Kelso musical theatre group. The two young leads were played by Adam Stevenson and Saskia Peace, with John Ferguson and Gwen Mabon also starring.
