Packed with Cole Porter favorites like “I Get a Kick Out of You,” “You’re the Top,” “Friendship,” “It’s De-Lovely,” and the iconic title song “Anything Goes,” this tap-dancing, laugh-out-loud musical adventure is delightful, delicious, and de-lovely!
The hilarious high-seas musical comedy Anything Goes features a dazzling score, mistaken identities, mismatched romances, and plenty of shipboard shenanigans.
