I know that Roundabout Theatre productions typically don't go on the road, but is it likely that Kiss Me, Kate could? Would love to see Megan Hilty in this.

I’d love to see it tour but I don’t think it’s likely, like you said.

What shows have Roundabout toured in the past? Anything Goes comes to mind, but that show ran for at least a few years on Broadway unlike Kiss Me, Kate.

Cabaret toured (the 1998 version), but that's the only other one I can think of. Unless you count Fiasco's Into the Woods and 39 Steps as Roundabout productions since Roundabout presented their NY engagements. So yes, it seems unlikely they'd tour Kate, especially given the mixed at best reception this production has gotten.

Roundabout's "Twelve Angry Men," with Richard Thomas and George Wendt, toured in 2007.
