4: Kiss Me Kate

This episode we discuss Cole Porter's Kiss Me Kate, a musical which centers around a musical. Based on a play. Which was later turned into a film...

Trust us, it makes more sense in context.

But with its Shakespearean roots, bawdy lyrics, and problematic slapstick, does Kiss Me Kate transcend the stage? Can the Fosse Fanny™ save it? We discuss all this, and more!

Brush up your Shakespeare, but beware of some mild language in this episode!

About the Podcast

From Stage to Screen
And Everything In Between. A Musical Adjacent Podcast.
From Stage to Screen (And Everything In Between) is a show for theatre lovers, cinephiles, and everyone in between. We are two theatre professionals, a filmmaker, and a jack of all trades who love the theatrical and cinematic arts. But really we're just a bunch of theatre kids and nerds who decided to get together and discuss the art of adapting musicals into movies, movies into musicals, and sometimes, both! Get ready for theatre history, nerdery, and hot takes on some of the most beloved (and not so beloved) movie and stage musicals. We hope we'll see you in the theater soon!
