Review of Kiss Me Kate. Music and Lyrics by Cole Porter. Wycombe Swan. August 9 to 11

Kiss Me Kate. Music and Lyrics by Cole Porter. Wycombe Swan. August 9 to 11. ‘Kiss me Kate” was a knock-out load of fun.

It was High Wycombe’s 15th big summer musical Youth Project which means 257 youngsters had had intensive rehearsals for 11 days culminating in four public performances. The show is always put together by a small team of experienced professionals, but the youngsters are responsible for every aspect of the production. To quote Joy Griffith, Project Producer: “A great feeling of community spirit is generated by these events, not only in the theatre itself, but around High Wycombe and within the families involved.” To read the full review visit www.mychilterns.co.uk
