The musical featured student doctors from all year groups and showcased the combined talents of band, choir, dance and drama.

The performance follows the story of Director divorcee Fred Graham as he tries to save his production of Shakespeare’s ‘The Taming of the Shrew’ as he battles unsavoury dealings, romantic troubles and dramatic co-stars.

Kiss Me, Kate is the latest in a long line of impressive and heart-warming events and initiatives Artefacts have contributed to the student community this academic year.

Their variety show at Mountford Hall in November showcased their work from the first term of the year, with band, choir, drama and dance busy with auditions for weeks leading up to the big night.
