This television production was presented by Armstrong Circle Theatre and broadcast on ABC. Lavishly cast with some of the day's brightest show business stars, Robert Goulet, Carol Lawrence and Jessica Walter, this record is a delightful reminder of Cole Porter's finest score. The story involves the production of a musical version of William Shakespeare's \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eThe Taming of the Shrew\u003c\/span\u003e and the conflict on and off-stage between Fred Graham, the show's director, producer, and star, and his leading lady, his ex-wife Lilli Vanessi. \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eKiss Me, Kate\u003c\/span\u003e was Porter's response to Rodgers and Hammerstein's \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic ;\"\u003eOklahoma!\u003c\/span\u003e and other integrated musicals; it was the first show he wrote in which the music and lyrics were firmly connected to the script. The musical premiered in 1948 and proved to be Porter's only show to run for more than 1,000 performances on Broadway. In 1949, it won the first Tony Award for Best Musical. There have been at least four television productions, the third in 1968 with then husband-and-wife team Robert Goulet and Carol Lawrence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Record Vision","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52793455018265,"sku":"CSS-645","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0992\/6937\/8329\/files\/LP-kiss_me_kate_129d3d56-50ad-415d-ae0c-bdb09211542f.jpg?v=1783553148","url":"https:\/\/record-vision.myshopify.com\/products\/css-645","provider":"Record Vision","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
