Ivy cast in her first musical Kiss Me Kate

Fans were disappointed when singer Ivy announced that her comeback date will be delayed. However, although we may not see her on music programs, it looks like we can find her on stage in her first musical ever!
On April 26th, Ivy took part in the poster photo shoot of her first musical, Kiss Me Kate, alongside Nam Kyung Joo, Choi Jung Won, and Ha Ji Seung.

This comedy musical is based off of Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew. In 2001, when it first debuted in Korea, the number of sold tickets exceeded 90% and won the Director’s Award and Best Actress Award in the 8th annual Musical Awards.

Ivy has been double cast as Bianca, who was played by Choi Jung Won 10 years ago.

A representative of the musical said, “I have always wanted to work with Ivy. I believe that the role of Bianca will enable Ivy to show her passion and talent on stage. She will be able to prove her talents to others through this musical.”

This musical is even more special because many of the same actors and actresses from 10 years ago can be found on stage once again.

Kiss Me Kate will begin playing from July 9th to August 14th.
