Kiss Me, Kate (London)

Well, since I was on a Shakespeare trip in London, it hardly seemed right not to go see Kiss Me, Kate while I was there.  That, and I was curious to see Carolee Carmello as Lilli.  Ok, I admit that I was lamenting the fact that I was missing Rachel York (yes, again!) by only a few days, but Carolee totally blew me away...  Why I went to London to see American performers in an American musical is quite beyond me...  But it seemed insanely funny, especially since Nancy Anderson was playing Lois again in London (she was also in the tour when I saw it).  Most curiously, Nancy had a red wig (with Carolee in blonde...  She should really have been in a red wig, but whatever) in London, rather than a blonde wig, as she did in the U.S. tour.  I asked her about this, and she said (as I had thought) that it was because Carolee was in blonde...  Ahhh well...

 

Me and Nancy Anderson...  Yes!  I went all the way to London to see her again! ;-)  Seriously, my most favourite Lois/Bianca ever! hehe
