#KitMusical Surprise at Marlowe May Day 2020

Saturday, 30th May, will be Marlowe May Day. Originally meant to be a get-together event, this has now changed into a virtual event.

It’s interesting because new research has come about to suggest that Kit Marlowe may have written a scene in Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew.

The online event will look at that while carrying out a reading of the play, with Dr Ildiko Solti as a the director.

#KitMusical fans may want to join in, as we will be dropping a surprise #somethingnew from the show. 🙂

The Online Event is free, but donations to the Marlowe Society are welcome.

New Concept Artwork

So, we had a little more time on our hands because of the coronavirus lockdown, and decided to invest it in #KitMusical.

Here’s a little drawing showcasing some of the elements that are referenced in #KitMusical and in Kit’s life… can you spot them all?

In the meantime, stay safe and healthy!

Stay Tuned

There will be a special preview of a duet from Kit the Musical during Marlowe Day Canterbury on May 20th at the Marlowe Theatre.  One of Kit’s most famous works “The Passionate Shepherd to His Love” is set to music with a modern twist.

You can book to attend the Marlowe Day events by going to the Marlowe Society’s website here.


Selected scenes and songs from Kit The Musical will be staged during the 2017 Canterbury Arts Conference.

While not the full musical, the scenes and songs should give the audience a great look at the show and the story line, while not revealing too much.  Remember to book your seats.


Soon to come… photos… soundbites… videos…
