STUDENTS are taking to the stage with musical Kiss Me Kate, based on Shakespeare's The Taming of The Shrew.
The Redcar and College Theatre Company will perform Cole Porter's musical from Wednesday, May 26, to Friday, May 28, at the college's main site hall.
Kiss Me Kate was written in 1948 and sets Shakespeare's original tale to music and then turns the story to the backstage bickering of a cast performing The Taming of the Shrew.
Craig Hannaway, the course leader for performing arts at Redcar and Cleveland College, said: "The recent production Stags and Hens was a huge success, so we are hoping that the appreciation with which that production was received, mixed with the anticipation of a show filled with great music, performed by budding young stars, will make Kiss Me Kate an even bigger triumph for the college."
Performances take place on Wednesday, May 26, at 7pm, Thursday, May 27, at 1pm and 7pm, and Friday, May 28, at 7pm.
Tickets are £3.50, and £2.50 for concessions, available on (01642) 473132, ext 3235.
