About this Event

Step aboard the SS American for laughs, chaos, and Cole Porter hits in the timeless musical Anything Goes!

A hilarious maritime romp, this classic musical from the legendary Cole Porter (who also wrote Kiss Me, Kate), concerns the antics aboard the S.S. American. The story follows Billy Crocker, a young stowaway in love with heiress Hope Harcourt, who is unfortunately engaged to the wealthy Lord Evelyn Oakleigh. Aided by the brassy nightclub singer Reno Sweeney and the comical "Public Enemy No. 13" Moonface Martin, Billy embarks on a journey filled with disguises, tap dancing, and mishaps to win Hope’s heart.

As the eccentric personalities clash on the high seas, the passengers get dragged into various romantic affairs, which leads to an unexpected and joyous ending.
