ANYTHING GOES
Music & Lyrics by
Cole Porter
Orginal Book by Guy Bolton & P.G. Wodehouse,
and Howard Lindsay & Russel Crouse
New Book by Timothy Crouse & John Weidman
Directed & Choreographed by
Kathleen Marshall
ALL ABOARD for this saucy and splendid new production of Cole Porter's musical romp across the Atlantic, starring Tony Award® winner Sutton Foster! When the S.S. American heads out to sea, etiquette and convention head out the portholes as two unlikely pairs set off on the course to true love... proving that sometimes destiny needs a little help from a crew of singing sailors, an exotic disguise and some good old-fashioned blackmail. Peppering this hilariously bumpy ride are some of musical theater's most memorable standards, including “I Get a Kick out of You,” “You're the Top,“ “It's De-lovely,” and of course, “Anything Goes.”
