Episode Synopsis

Marrying slices of Shakespeare with perhaps Cole Porter's finest score, "Kiss Me Kate" is one of the ultimate old Broadway hits. Fashioned as a response to "Oklahoma" and built with sturdy story beats that have allowed it to be revived as recently as 3 years ago, "Kate" has lore and legend to explicate for days.So OF COURSE we had to bring back in Phil Crosby, Executive Director of Richmond Triangle Players, for another chat. Not only does Phil have plenty to say about "Kate," he adds related background on why the Barter Theatre is called that and what motivated certain casting choices, while also confirming a rumor related to Broadway star Alfred Drake based on his own experience working with him. about "Kiss Me Kate" and check out related videos at ChasingPhantom.net.
